A new treatment of cell-interface flux in AUSM-type methods is introduced to reduce the numerical dissipation. Through analysis of TVD limiters, a criterion for the more accurate prediction of cell-interface state is found out and M-AUSMPW+ is developed by determining the transferred property newly and appropriately within the criterion. The superiority of M-AUSMPW+ is clearly revealed in multi-dimensional flow problems. It can eliminate numerical dissipation effectively in a non-flow aligned grid system. As a result, M-AUSMPW+ is shown to be much more accurate and effective than other previous schemes in multi-dimensional problems. Through a stationary contact discontinuity, a vortex flow, a shock wave/boundary layer interactions and viscous shock tube problems, it is verified that accuracy of M-AUSMPW+ is improved.

The M-AUSMPW+ scheme that can capture shock waves exactly with monotonic characteristic is developed by analyzing the cause of oscillation in shock regions. Firstly shock-capturing characteristics of general FVS including the AUSM-type schemes are investigated in detail, according to the different between a cell-interface and a sonic transition position. The cause of oscillation is the improper numerical dissipation that could not represent the real physics. The M-AUSMPW+ could capture shocks exactly without oscillatory behaviors in considering the sonic transition position and an cell-interface position

In this paper, we introduce two-phase versions of RoeM and AUSMPW+ schemes. Both schemes are originally developed for the gas dynamic problems, and have shown superior accuracy, efficiency and robustness. A new shock discontinuity sensing term is derived from the mixture equation of state, which is commonly used in the RoeM and AUSMPW+ schemes for the stable numerical flux calculation. The developed two-phase versions of the schemes are applied to several liquid-gas, large property discrepancy two-phase test problems, including several shock stability test problems. The results show that both schemes maintain the merits exhibited in gas dynamic problems even in two-phase flows.

RoeM and AUSMPW+ schemes are two of the most accurate and efficient schemes which are recently developed for the analysis of single phase gas dynamics. In this paper, we developed two-phase versions of these schemes for the analysis of gas-liquid large density ratio two-phase flow. We adopt homogeneous equilibrium model (HEM) using mass fraction to describe different two phases. In the Eulerian-Eulerian framework, HEM assumes dynamic and thermal equilibrium of the two phases in the same computational mesh. From the mixture equation of state (EOS), we derived new shock-discontinuity sensing term (SDST), which is commonly used in RoeM and AUSMPW+ for the stable numerical flux calculation. The proposed two-phase versions of RoeM and AUSMPW+ schemes are applied on several air-water two-phase test problems. In spite of the large discrepancy of material properties such as density, enthalpy, and speed of sound, the numerical results show that both schemes provide very satisfactory solutions.

The present paper deals with the extension of AUSMPW+ scheme into two-fluid model for multiphase flow. AUSMPW+ scheme is the improvement of a single-phase AUSM+ scheme by designing pressure-based weighting functions to prevent oscillations near a wall and shock instability after a strong shock. Recently, Kitamura and Liou assessed a family of AUSM-type schemes with two-fluid model governing equations [K. Kitamura and M.-S. Liou, Comparative study of AUSM-Family schemes in compressible multi-phase flow simulations, ICCFD7-3702 (2012)]. It was observed that the direct application of the single-phase AUSMPW+ did not provide satisfactory results for most of numerical test cases, which motivates the current study. It turns out that, by designing pressure-based weighting functions, which play a key role in controlling numerical diffusion for two-fluid model, problems reported in can be overcome. Various numerical experiments validate the proposed modification of AUSMPW+ scheme is accurate and robust to solve multiphase flow within the framework of two-fluid model.

In order to reduce the excessive numerical dissipation which is induced when a grid system is not aligned with a discontinuity, a new spatial treatment of cell-interface fluxes is introduced. The M-AUSMPW+ in this paper has the formula that has an additional procedure of re-defining transferred properties at a cell-interface, based on AUSMPW+. The newly defined transferred property could eliminate numerical dissipation effectively in non-flow aligned grid system of multi-dimensional flows.

Two-phase RoeM and AUSMPW+ schemes are preconditioned for the simulation of all Mach number flows, which are generally of interest for many gas-liquid two-phase application problems, because of large speed of sound in liquid region and low speed of sound in mixture or gas region. Conventional characteristic based schemes lose their accuracy or robustness in low Mach number flows, because their numerical dissipation terms are scaled by speed of sound, which is too large compared with local velocity magnitude in a low Mach region. All speed versions of RoeM and AUSMPW+ reflect the eigenvalues of the preconditioned governing system, which have the same order of magnitude even in low Mach number region. From the asymptotic analysis, it is observed that the discretized system by the developed schemes is consistent with the continuum system in the incompressible limit. The numerical results show the accurate and robust behavior of the proposed shcemes for all speed two-phase flows.

The monotonic characteristics of AUSM-type shemes are proven by mathmatics and numerics. Qualitatively well-known characteristics are quantified by mathematics and the magnitude of oscillatory behaviors of each schemes could be compared directly. Moreover, it is also studied how the sonic transition position affects the oscillation in capturing the shocks. Lastly M-AUSMPW+, the latest improved AUSM-type scheme, is shown to have monotonic characeristics though all shock conditions.

A comparative study on flux functions for the 2-dimensional Euler equations has been conducted. Explicit 4-stage Runge-Kutta method is used to integrate the equations. Flux functions used in the study are Steger-Warming's, van Leer's, Godunov's, Osher's(physical order and natural order), Roe's, HLLE, AUSM, AUSM+, AUSMPW+ and M-AUSMPW+. The performance of MUSCL limiters and MLP limiters in conjunction with flux functions are compared extensively for steady and unsteady problems.
