Being an intermediary step between direct simulation and statistical description (RANS) for the
calculation of turbulent flows, Large Eddy Simulation is a powerful method for the analysis of the
dynamics of flows. In the compressible case, LES necessitates the use of numerical schemes
capable to represent both the small structures of the flow with very low numerical dissipation, in order
to minimize possible interactions with the subgrid model, and to capture discontinuities (shocks) with
the robustness common to the Godunov type schemes. In [3] we have developed a scheme, named
OSMP7, which is designed to satisfy these two requirements. Preliminary numerical results on
classical test cases have shown that the scheme could be a good candidate for LES simulations in
the compressible case. We present here the results we obtained using OSMP7 for the computation of
two viscous flow cases which necessitate high accuracy and robustness : the interaction of a shock
wave with a boundary layer in the laminar case, and a supersonic turbulent infinite channel flow.

The main conclusion of this study is that the OSMP7 scheme gives highly accurate results in
calculating an unsteady SWBLI, where low speed zones are close to high speed zones. The accuracy
properties of the scheme are not degraded when a non uniform mesh is used, which is not the case
using a high order implicit AUSM+ scheme, usually considered to be very effective for this type of
flow.
