An introduction to numerical methods suitable for the Euler equations
Abstract
The significance of the conservation form for Euler equations is discussed and the application of vector concepts, characteristic methods, shock fitting methods and finite element methods is introduced. Marching schemes for linear, scalar problems, and nonlinear aspects are considered. Two and three dimensional problems; computations on a curvilinear grid; and boundary conditions are covered. Artificial viscosity and entropy; and convergence to steady state are presented.
