AN IMPROVED HYBRID ALTERNATIVE WENO SCHEME FOR HIGH MACH NUMBER FLOWS

This study presents the development of a fifth-order hybrid alternative mapped weighted essentially non-oscillatory scheme (HAW-M) for high-speed compressible flows. A new, improved smoothness indicator has been developed to design the HAW-M scheme. The performance of the present scheme has been evaluated through different one and two-dimensional test cases. The developed scheme shows higher accuracy and low dissipation. Further, it captures the fine-scale structures smoothly than the existing high-resolution method.
