The schemes of the pseudospectral method are instable at high Reynolds numbers. In this study
the scheme stability of the advection-diffusion equation was investigated through the eigenvalue analysis theory and the numerical example verification. The emphasis was laid on using the penalty method to handle the boundary conditions for the purpose of widening the stability range of the pseudospectral schemes at high Reynolds numbers. The results show that the stability conditions under strongly restrained boundary conditions are so hard that the schemes will fail at high Reynolds numbers. However
when the penalty method is adopted to handle the boundary conditions
the stability range can increase by 1-3 orders of magnitude and the upper limit of Reynolds numbers can rise significantly. In addition
the penalty method can keep the high accuracy property of the pseudospectral method and is helpful in reducing the computational cost. The present study may be of theoretical importance for the mathematical analysis and design of the pseudospectral schemes in the numerical simulation of heat and mass transfer and fluid flow governing equations.
