ANALYSIS AND DESIGN OF NUMERICAL SCHEMES FOR GAS DYNAMICS, 2: ARTIFICIAL DIFFUSION AND DISCRETE SHOCK STRUCTURE

Abstract The effect of artificial diffusion on discrete shock structures is examined for a family of schemes which includes scalar diffusion, convective upwind and split pressure (CUSP) schemes, and upwind schemes with characteristic splitting. The analysis leads to conditions on the diffusive flux such that stationary discrete shockscan contain a single interior point. The simplest formulation which meets these conditions is a CUSP scheme in which the coefficients of the pressure differences are fully determined by the coefficient of convective diffusion. It is also shown how both the characteristic and CUSP schemes can be modified to preserve constant stagnation enthalpy in steady flow, leading to four variants, the E and H-characteristic schemes, and the E and H-CUSP schemes. Numerical results are presented which confirm the properties of these schemes.
