← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when a supersonic flow solver uses the Euler equations?
A)Shock wave resolution✓
B)Accurate boundary layer modeling
C)Viscous dissipation increases
D)Turbulent kinetic energy decreases
💡 Explanation
Shock wave resolution improves because the Euler equations, while neglecting viscosity, conserve mass, momentum and energy. Therefore shockwaves are sharper approximations, rather than blurred by viscous effects that boundary layer models require at the wall.
