This study investigates the accuracy and efficiency of several flux splitting methods for the compressible, two-dimensional Euler equations. Steger-Warming flux vector splitting method, Van Leer flux vector splitting method, The Advection Upstream Splitting Method (AUSM), Artificially Upstream Flux Vector Splitting Scheme (AUFS) and Roe&rsquo / s flux difference splitting schemes were implemented using the first- and second-order reconstruction methods. Limiter functions were
embedded to the second-order reconstruction methods. The flux splitting methods are applied to subsonic, transonic and supersonic flows over NACA0012 airfoil, as well as subsonic, transonic and supersonic flows in a channel. The comparison of the obtained results with each other and the ones in the literature is presented. The advantages and disadvantages of each scheme among others are identified.
