The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) prediction workshops sponsored by the AIAA have created invaluable opportunities to discuss the predictive capabilities of CFD in areas in which it has struggled, for example, sonic boom prediction. While there are many factors that contribute to disagreement between simulated and experimental results, such as modeling or discretization errors, quantifying the errors contained in a simulation is important for those who make decisions based on the computational results. The linearized error transport equations (ETE) combined with a truncation error estimate is a method to quantify one source of error. The ETE are implemented with a complex-step method to provide an exact linearization with minimal source code modifications to CFD and multidisciplinary analysis methods including atmospheric propagation of sonic boom signatures. Uniformly refined grids from the 2nd AIAA Sonic Boom Prediction Workshop demonstrate the utility of the linearized ETE for multidisciplinary analysis, capturing the general trends of the discretization error when flow features are resolved while also demonstrating issues related to error prediction near strong shocks or when under-resolved flow features are present.
