The compressible Euler equations for gas dynamics are (mass, momentum, internal energy)


Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \frac{\partial (\rho v)}{\partial t} + \frac{\partial}{\partial x} \left( \rho u v \right) + \frac{\partial}{\partial y} \left( \rho v^2 + p \right) =0 \, , }

A suitable equation of state used to close the system is given by

where typically for a monoatomic gas.
