Abstract
Object X-ray method commonly used for hole search in overset grids requires huge amount of time due to complicated vector calculations to search the cross-points as well as time-consuming hole search algorithm with respect to background grids. Especially, when the grid system is in motion relative to the background, hole points should be searched at every time step, leading to hung computational burden. To cope with this difficulties, this study presents an efficient hole search algorithm mainly designed to reduce hole searching time. To this end, virtual surface with reduced grid points is suggested and logical operators are employed as a classification algorithm instead of complicated vector calculations. In addition, the searching process is further accelerated by designating hole points in a row rather than discriminating hole points with respect to each background grid points. If there exists a relative motion, the present algorithm requires much less time because only the virtual surface needs to be moved at every time step. The hole searching time has been systematically compared for a few selected geometries.
