Abstract
Since the work of Godunov, Van Leer, Harten-Lax and Roe, the numerical solution of systems of hyperbolic conservation laws is dominated by Riemann-solver based schemes. These one-dimensional schemes are usually extended to several space-dimensions either by using dimensional-splitting on cartesian grids or by the finite-volume approach on unstructured grids. The first systematic criticism of using one-dimensional Riemann-solvers for multi-dimensional gas-dynamics goes back to Roe himself: the Riemann-solver is applied in the grid- rather than the flow-direction, which may lead to a misinterpretation of the local wave-structure of the solution.
