Flux-vector splitting for the Euler equations
Abstract
For the full or isenthalpic Euler equations combined with the ideal-gas law, the flux-vector splitting presented here is, by a great margin, the simplest means to implement upwind differencing. For a polytropic gas law, with γ > 1, closed formulas have not yet been derived.
