The present paper describes the numerical issues that had to be overcome in order to generate of accurate steady-states for the supersonic flow over a compression corner. Low-order schemes generate steady-states contaminated by temporal content. Switching to high-order schemes, however, eventually leads to disturbance free steady-states.
