A dissipation-free time domain Discontinuous Galerkin method applied to three dimensional linearized Euler equations around a steady-state non uniform inviscid flow

International audienceWe present in this paper a time-domain discontinuous Galerkin dissipation-free method for the transient solution of the three-dimensional linearized Euler equations around a steady-state solution. In the general context of a nonuniform supporting flow, we prove, using the well-known symmetrization of Euler equations, that some aeroacoustic energy satisfies a balance equation with source term at the continuous level, and that our numerical framework satisfies an equivalent balance equation at the discrete level and is genuinely dissipation-free. In the case of P-1 Lagrange basis functions and tetrahedral unstructured meshes, a parallel implementation of the method has been developed, based on message passing and mesh partitioning. Three-dimensional numerical results confirm the theoretical properties of the method. They include test-cases where Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities appear
