Introduction

SU2 is a high-precision partial differential equation solver developed by the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics of Stanford University. Different from CFL3D of NASA, SU2 is an unstructured grid solver developed based on C++ (similar to OpenFOAM). It carries out not only serial computing but also parallel computing, and has the function of deformation grid (that is, dynamic grid) and grid adaptive function. To improve the computing efficiency, the code adopts multiple grids to accelerate the convergence.

SU2 has multiple spatial discrete formats and multiple flux limiters, which can be used to calculate the flow rate from low speed to high speed, it can also simulate multiple physical fields, multicomponent flow, combustion, aerodynamic noise, two-phase flow, magnetohydrodynamic, plasma flow, and optimization.
