Abstract
In this paper, we propose an adaptive semi-discrete central-upwind scheme on triangular meshes to approximate the solutions of hyperbolic conservation laws in gas dynamics: a local smoothness indicator is implemented to identify discontinuous solution regions; away from the discontinuities, a simple and computationally economical flux is used; near the discontinuities, an accurate but computationally uneconomical flux is used. Several numerical experiments, Euler equations and Kelvin–Helmholtz instability, are successfully simulated. The numerical results show the desired accuracy, high efficiency and robustness of the adaptive scheme.
