Is it compatible to use a turbulence model with TVD schemes given that the latter is an inherently artificial viscosity method? I am trying to model a supersonic free jet using TVD schemes and the jet doesn't seem to decay.

may be it is doesn't satisfy entropy condition. use monotone

you mean something like MUSCL?

That is the correct result!! - TVD schemes have such low numerical viscosity that a shear layer will not develop if you are solving Euler only. I ran the same simulation (supersonic jet) several years ago while testing my TVD code to obtain a measure of its numerical viscosity, and I was very pleased with the result. An underlying TVD scheme is ideal for a compressible Navier Stokes code, because you see the effects of physical viscosity only.

Hi Axel

Is it Ok if I give you my email and ask a few questions regarding the problems that I have been having with my supersonic jet simulations?
