An accurate shock-capturing scheme based on rotated-hybrid Riemann solver

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to present a new hybrid Euler flux fonction for use in a finite-volume Euler/Navier-Stokes code and adapted to compressible flow problems. Design/methodology/approach – The proposed scheme, called AUFSRR can be devised by combining the AUFS solver and the Roe solver, based on a rotated Riemann solver approach (Sun and Takayama, 2003; Ren, 2003). The upwind direction is determined by the velocity-difference vector and idea is to apply the AUFS solver in the direction normal to shocks to suppress carbuncle and the Roe solver across shear layers to avoid an excessive amount of dissipation. The resulting flux functions can be implemented in a very simple manner, in the form of the Roe solver with modified wave speeds, so that converting an existing AUFS flux code into the new fluxes is an extremely simple task. Findings – The proposed flux functions require about 18 per cent more CPU time than the Roe flux. Accuracy, efficiency and other essential features of AUFSRR sche...
