The most striking difference between the two results is the thickness of the shock. Notice that for the refined mesh, the shock is less thick that for the original mesh. This shows that the refined mesh is converging towards the real case.

Comparison to Analytical Solution

In order to verify our simulation, we need to compare our results to either an analytical solution or an experiment. Below is a table comparing the values from the simulation with the calculations from the pre-analysis.
