abstract = {<p style="text-align: justify;">The computation of compressible flows becomes more challenging when the
Mach number has different orders of magnitude. When the Mach number is of order
one, modern shock capturing methods are able to capture shocks and other complex
structures with high numerical resolutions. However, if the Mach number is small, the
acoustic waves lead to stiffness in time and excessively large numerical viscosity, thus
demanding much smaller time step and mesh size than normally needed for incompressible flow simulation. In this paper, we develop an all-speed asymptotic preserving (AP) numerical scheme for the compressible isentropic Euler and Navier-Stokes
equations that is uniformly stable and accurate for all Mach numbers. Our idea is to
split the system into two parts: one involves a slow, nonlinear and conservative hyperbolic system adequate for the use of modern shock capturing methods and the other a
linear hyperbolic system which contains the stiff acoustic dynamics, to be solved implicitly. This implicit part is reformulated into a standard pressure Poisson projection
system and thus possesses sufficient structure for efficient fast Fourier transform solution techniques. In the zero Mach number limit, the scheme automatically becomes a
projection method-like incompressible solver. We present numerical results in one and
two dimensions in both compressible and incompressible regimes.</p>},
