Abstract

In this paper we discuss the usage of finite differences for the computation of the flux Jacobian in the framework of a discrete adjoint or time-linearised flow solver, in particular the associated choice of an appropriate step size. For comparison, we apply algorithmic differentiation to obtain an exact flux Jacobian. It turns out that the results depend strongly on the choice of the slope limiter. A careful choice of this function is crucial for computations with exact flux linearisations as well as for finite difference approximations.
