Hi Guys,

I know that the compressible Euler Equations are:

[tex]\partial_t (\rho \mathbf u) + (\mathbf u \cdot \nabla)(\rho \mathbf u) + \nabla p = 0[/tex]

[tex]\partial_t \rho + \nabla \cdot (\rho \mathbf u) = 0[/tex]

Subject to suitable initial conditions and solving for [tex]\mathbf u, \; \rho[/tex] unknown.

Does anybody have an example of a pair of functions which satisfies these relations in a non-1D case?

Non trivial solutions would also be nice
