This paper presents a numerical evaluation of two different artificial stress diffusion techniques for the stabilization of viscoelastic Oldroyd-B fluid flows at high Weissenberg numbers. The standard artificial diffusion in the form of a Laplacian of the extra stress tensor is compared with a newly proposed approach using a discrete time derivative of the Laplacian of the extra stress tensor. Both methods are implemented in a finite element code and demonstrated in the solution of a viscoelastic fluid flow in a two-dimensional corrugated channel for a range of Weissenberg numbers. The numerical simulations have shown that this new temporal stress diffusion not only efficiently stabilizes numerical simulations, but also vanishes when the solution reaches a steady state. It is demonstrated that in contrast to the standard tensorial diffusion, the temporal artificial stress diffusion does not affect the final solution.
