Numerical solution of Euler equations for compressible fluids by the finite element method, volume 3

The numerical solutions of steady flow Euler equations were studied using an asymptotic method with equations formulated in conservative primitive variables. An explicit scheme and a Richtmyer-Galerkin scheme were tried in several finite element contexts, including artificial viscosity, gliding conditions and several boundary condition configurations. The exploration of a Runge-Kutta scheme was used to develop an explicit version without matrix, twice as fast as the base version. A finite volume/finite element hybrid formulation is adopted for first order out of center schemes.
