Improvements and applications of a streamwise upwind algorithm

Abstract

An improved streamwise upwind algorithm has been used to study conical flow fields. In the present method, additional terms have been introduced in the cross-flow direction to prevent solution decoupling in supersonic flows, and the local Mach number is taken into account in order to evaluate the rotated differencing. It is found that the formula captures oblique shock waves in the same manner as Roe's (1986) formula, has good convergence properties, and accurately computes shear flows.
