One of the problems in computational aeroacoustics (CAA) is the large disparity between the length and time scales of the flow field, which may be the source of aerodynamically generated noise, and the ones of the resulting acoustic field. This is the main reason why numerical schemes, used to calculate the timeand space-derivatives, should exhibit a low dispersion and dissipation error. This p...

A general class of one-step methods for index 2 differential-algebraic systems in Hessenberg form is studied. This family of methods, which we call partitioned Runge-Kutta methods, includes all one-step methods of Runge-Kutta type proposed in the literature for integrating such DAE systems, including the more recently proposed classes of half-explicit methods. A new family of super-convergent p...
