Some of the schemes above have tunning parameters or accept extra options, the following table lists those options and indicates to which schemes they apply (if a scheme does not appear on the table, no options apply to it).
-`ROE_KAPPA`, default 0.5, constant that multiplies the left and right state sum;
80
76
-`ENTROPY_FIX_COEFF`, default 0.001, puts a lower bound on dissipation by limiting the minimum convective Eigenvalue to a fraction of the speed of sound. Increasing it may help overcome convergence issues, at the expense of making the solution sensitive to this parameter.
81
77
-`ROE_LOW_DISSIPATION`, default `NONE`, methods to reduce dissipation in regions where certain conditions are verified, `FD` (wall distance based), `NTS` (Travin and Shur), `FD_DUCROS` and `NTS_DUCROS` as before plus Ducros' shock sensor;
82
78
-`USE_ACCURATE_FLUX_JACOBIANS`, default `NO`, if set to `YES` accurate flux Jacobians are used instead of Roe approximates, slower on a per iteration basis but in some cases allows much higher CFL values to be used and therefore faster overall convergence;
83
79
-`MIN_ROE_TURKEL_PREC` and `MAX_ROE_TURKEL_PREC`, defaults 0.01 and 0.2 respectively, reference Mach numbers for Turkel preconditioning;
84
-
-`USE_VECTORIZATION`, default `NO`, if `YES` use the vectorized (SSE, AVX, or AVX512) implementation which is faster but may be less robust against initial solution transients.

**Note:** Some schemes are not compatible with all other features of SU2, the AUSM family is not compatible with unsteady simulations of moving grids, non-ideal gases are only compatible with the standard Roe and HLLC schemes. The only upwind scheme that uses vectorization is the Roe scheme (ideal gas only), see the build instructions for how to tune the compilation for maximum performance.

For incompressible flows the `BOUNDED_SCALAR` method is also available, this includes a divergence correction to prevent spurious production/destruction of the transported scalar while convergence is not reached.
