A New Technique for the Numerical Solution of the Compressible Euler Equations with Arbitrary Mach Numbers

  • Conference paper
Hyperbolic Problems: Theory, Numerics, Applications

This work is concerned with the numerical solution of an inviscid compressible flow. Our goal is to develop a sufficiently accurate and robust method allowing the solution of problems with a wide range of Mach numbers. The main ingredients are the discontinuous Galerkin finite element method (DGFEM), semiimplicit time stepping, special treatment of transparent boundary conditions, and a suitable stabilization procedure near discontinuities. Numerical tests show the robustness of the method.
