“…The convective terms are considered in a quadratically split form with α=1 recovering the divergence (Div) representation and α=1/2 giving the quasi skew‐symmetric (SS) form of Feiereisen et al 27 (which also yields discretely consistent spatial representations for the transport of secondary conservation quantities, 15,16 ρ ϕ 2 ). Meanwhile the tunable attenuation is employed as filter‐based AD 12 in order to achieve temporally consistent numerical damping (note: temporally‐consistent solution filtering procedures would also be appropriate 12,28,29 ). The numerical dissipation then contributes to the original residual equation as where the directional damping is scaled by an appropriate velocity scale (eg, the acoustic speed) for dimensional consistency with the equations: …”
