| contents | Quantum linear solvers are well studied as standalone quantum algorithms; however, in hybrid classical-quantum routines, their practical value must be evaluated at the level of the full non-linear application. A central issue is whether the approximation error of the quantum linear solver remains controlled once embedded in a full iterative workflow. We study this question in the context of a hybrid computational fluid dynamics (CFD) scheme. Through numerical simulations, we analyze how an approximate quantum linear solver affects the convergence of the overall CFD iteration. We show that convergence can be preserved for a non-exact quantum solver with only a moderate overhead in iteration count, provided that the high-frequency components of the linear system are resolved with sufficient accuracy. In addition, we develop an approximate qubitization-based solver (Cheb-LCU) that can reduce quantum resource requirements relative to a Quantum Singular Value Transformation (QSVT)-based solver while inducing only a small loss in convergence performance. This claim is demonstrated through explicit implementation and compilation of the quantum algorithms and by examining their impact on the convergence of the full CFD scheme. We find that our approximate approach reduces the required number of single-qubit rotations by over an order of magnitude relative to the QSVT-based solver, while requiring only a modest increase in CFD iteration count. |
