Abstract

The present work generalises the earlier work in which a variational principle technique was presented in order to evaluate the magnitude of upwind required to solve the compressible flow equations.

The technique proposed allows the choice of nodes where upwind is required in each of the relevant equations. It is a simple and mathematically consistent way of evaluating the amount of upwind or artificial viscosity to be introduced at every node and every equation involved.
