High Order Semi-implicit WENO Schemes for All Mach Full Euler System of Gas Dynamics
share
In this paper, we propose high order semi-implicit schemes for the all Mach full Euler equations of gas dynamics. Material waves are treated explicitly, while acoustic waves are treated implicitly, thus avoiding severe CFL restrictions for low Mach flows. High order accuracy in time is obtained by semi-implicit temporal integrator based on the IMEX Runge-Kutta (IMEX-RK) framework. High order in space is achieved by finite difference WENO schemes with characteristic-wise reconstructions adapted to the semi-implicit IMEX-RK time discretization. The schemes are proven to be asymptotic preserving and asymptotically accurate as the Mach number vanishes. Besides, they can well capture discontinuous solutions in the compressible regime, especially for two dimensional Riemann problems. Numerical tests in one and two space dimensions will illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed schemes.
