Summary An unstructured, shock‐fitting algorithm, originally developed to simulate steady flows, has being further developed to make it capable of dealing with unsteady flows. The present paper discusses and analyses the additional features required to extend to unsteady flows, the steady algorithm. The properties of the unsteady version of this novel, unstructured shock‐fitting technique, are tested by reference to the inviscid interaction between a vortex and a planar shock: a comparative assessment of shock‐capturing and shock‐fitting is made for the same test problem.
