Abstract

The use of characteristic boundary conditions for the Navier-Stokes equations with constant coefficients matrices are analysed. New boundary conditions of characteristic type that yield fast convergence to steady state, a strongly well posed continuous problem and a strongly stable semi-discrete problem are derived. Numerical experiments that indicate the relevance of the analysis for the nonlinear problem are presented.
