Abstract
Due to its attractive properties in computing compressible flows, such as sharp capturing of discontinuities, satisfying entropy condition and positivity preservation, the HLLEM approximate Riemann solver has been widely applied for simulations of many compressible flow problems. However, when it comes to weakly compressible or incompressible flows, the HLLEM scheme cannot give physically correct solutions. In the current study, a simple low Mach number fix is applied to improve the accuracy and stability of HLLEM approximate Riemann solver in the low Mach limit. As a result, a modified HLLEM scheme called LM-HLLEM scheme is proposed. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed LM-HLLEM scheme is able to compute various flow problems accurately and robustly ranging from compressible to low Mach incompressible flows.
