Abstract
In this paper we revisit the problem of implementing wall boundary conditions for the Euler equations of gas dynamics in the context of unstructured meshes. Both (a) strong formulation, where the zero normal velocity on the wall is enforced explicitly and (b) weak formulation, where the zero normal velocity on the wall is enforced through the flux function are discussed. Taking advantage of both approaches, mixed procedures are defined. The new wall boundary treatments are accurate and can be applied to any approximate Riemann solver. Numerical comparisons for various flow regimes, from subsonic to supersonic, and for various approximate Riemann solvers point out that the mixed boundary procedures drastically improve the accuracy. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
