The pressure-correction equation of the compressible flows is ___________(a) a hyperbolic equation(b) an elliptic equation(c) a combined elliptic and hyperbolic equation(d) a parabolic equationI had been asked this question during an interview.This is a very interesting question from Compressible Flows topic in portion Incompressible Flows & Compressible Flows of Computational Fluid Dynamics

Answer»

Correct option is (a) a hyperbolic equation

For explanation I would say: The pressure-correction equation in the INCOMPRESSIBLE flows is an ELLIPTIC equation. This is transformed into a hyperbolic equation in the compressible flows which is capable of RESOLVING shock waves.
