Abstract

We establish the existence of an axisymmetric weak solution to the steady Euler system with a transonic shock, nonzero vorticity, and nonzero swirl in a three-dimensional cylinder. When prescribing the supersonic solution in the upstream region by axisymmetric functions with variable entropy and variable angular momentum density(=swirl), we construct such a solution by using a Helmholtz decomposition of the velocity field and the method of iteration. An iteration scheme is developed using a delicate decomposition of the Rankine-Hugoniot conditions on the transonic shock via Helmholtz decomposition.
