Accurate, efficient and monotonic numerical methods for multi-dimensional compressible flows

Through extensive numerous test cases including an oblique stationary contact discontinuity, an expansion fan, a vortex flow, a shock wave/vortex interaction and a viscous shock tube problem, it is verified that MLP combined with M-AUSMPW+ numerical flux substantially improves accuracy, efficiency and robustness both in continuous and discontinuous flows. By extending the current approach to three-dimensional flows, MLP is expected to reduce computational cost and enhance accuracy even further.
