Abstract

In this paper we formulate a high order algorithm for hyperbolic conservation laws using a combination of Fourier expansions and unstructured spectral/ hp elements. The unstructured part of the algorithm is formulated using a discontinuous Galerkin approximation. The conservation properties of the unstructured algorithm using a variable polynomial order are examined and an orthogonal projection for the normal flux is constructed to ensure conservation. Examples of Euler flow over a circular bump and unsteady Navier-Stokes flow in a triangular duct are examined.
