A meshless method for compressible flows with the HLLC Riemann solver

The HLLC Riemann solver, which resolves both the shock waves and contact discontinuities, is popular to the computational fluid dynamics community studying compressible flow problems with mesh methods. Although it was reported to be used in meshless methods, the crucial information and procedure to realise this scheme within the framework of meshless methods were not clarified fully. Moreover, the capability of the meshless HLLC solver to deal with compressible liquid flows is not completely clear yet as very few related studies have been reported. Therefore, a comprehensive investigation of a dimensional non-split HLLC Riemann solver for the least-square meshless method is carried out in t…
