Calculated global conditions for the unsteady Euler's flow equations

This paper considers the numerical solution of a fluid dynamical system with time-dependent oscillating boundaries. The problem detailed, a compressible and inviscid flow in a one-dimensional pipe with vibrating ends, is examined to develop techniques needed to solve the more complex unsteady flows in turbomachine cascades. The problem is shown to be mathematically ill-posed but by complementing the governing equations with energy conservation, a unique solution is obtained. An artificial damping term is introduced into the governing equations to improve the performance of the time-marching integration.
