Two Decades Old Entropy Stable Method for the Euler Equations Revisited

摘要

The two decades old high order central differencing via entropy splitting and summation-by-parts (SBP) difference closure of Olsson and Oliger, Gerritsen and Olsson, and Yee et al. [2, 7, 25] is revisited. The entropy splitting is a form of skew-symmetric splitting in terms of the physical entropy of the nonlinear Euler flux derivatives. Central differencing applied to the entropy splitting form of the Euler flux derivatives together with SBP difference operators will, hereafter, be referred to as entropy split schemes.
