In this paper we compare the performance of a new general algorithm developed recently in application to problems of high Mach number flows with the performance of specialised algorithms applicable only to such flows. It appears that the results for most examples compare well, the biggest difference occurring in that of high Mach number compression corner. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
