A new particle method is presented for the numerical simulation of compressible inviscid gas flows, through procedures which involve relatively small modifications to an existing direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) algorithm. Implementation steps are outlined for simulations involving various grid geometries and for gas mixtures comprising an arbitrary number of species. The proposed method is compared with other numerical schemes through a series of one-dimensional and two-dimensional test cases, and is shown to provide a significant reduction in both artificial diffusion and statistical scatter effects relative to existing DSMC-based equilibrium particle methods.
