Numerical simulations of viscoelastic flow: The effect of mesh size
This paper examines the effects of mesh size and configuration in the numerical simulation of both planar and axisymmetric 4:1 contraction flows. Both finite difference and finite element methods are used, and the dependence of the breakdown of algorithmic convergence on mesh and the mode of stress decomposition is noted.
