For the Linearized Navier-Stokes interfaces iterative solver suggestions are automatically generated when the default solver is generated. These can be seen by expanding the Solver Configuration tree under
Stationary Solver or
Time-Dependent Solver. Per default a direct solver is used and two iterative solvers are suggested and disabled. To turn on one of these approached right-click the solver and select
Enable (or press F4). The first suggestion
(GMRES with Direct Precon.) uses an iterative solver with a direct preconditioner. This method is typically faster then the direct solver and uses 20% less memory. The second suggestion
(GMRES with DD) uses an iterative solver with the domain decomposition method. This method is very robust (also for multiphysics applications) and very memory efficient, but it can be slow.
This is achieved by selecting the Adiabatic formulation option under the
Linearized Navier-Stokes Equation Settings section. When
Adiabatic formulation is selected all temperature options and conditions are disabled in the user interface.
