Euler equations in primitive form for a real gas

For an ideal gas, it is relatively easy to express the Euler equations in primitive form (variables $rho$, $u$, $p$), starting from their expression in conservative variables ($rho$, $rho u$, $E$).



I did not find any example of such derivation for a general real gas, governed by any equation of state. Is it possible to express the Euler equations in primitive form for any (unknown) real gas (involving the speed of sound somewhere)?

          Yes it can always be done. I assume you can write the general case in conservation form. so you already have one primitive variable, Then



          $$u_t=rho^-1((rho u)_t-urho_t)$$



          and$$i_t=rho^-1[(rho i+rho u^2/2)_t-(i+u^2/2)rho_t-rho uu_t]$$



          where i is specific internal energy. Generalization to more dimensions is obvious. You should see some simplification.
