Abstract
In numerical computations, unstructured grids can be used easily to fit computational domains involving complex geometries. The method of space-time conservation element and solution element (CE/SE method)[1,2] can be used in conjunction with unstructured grids. In this paper, the procedure of developing a non-splitting unstructured-triangular-mesh Euler solver based on the CE/SE method is described. Numerical examples involving complex features of shock waves are presented to show that the CE/SE method works very well even for unstructured triangular grids.
