Abstract: The Riemann solutions to Chaplygin Euler equations with a scaled pressure are considered. When the pressure vanishes, there are three cases. The Riemann solution containing two shock waves converges to the delta shock wave solution of the transport equations. During this process, both the strength and propagation speed of the delta shock are investigated in detail. We find that there is something different from that for polytropic or isothermal gas. The Riemann solution containing two rarefaction waves tends to the two contact discontinuity solution to the transport equations as the pressure goes to zero. The intermediate state between the two contact discontinuities is a vacuum state. The Riemann solution containing one rarefaction wave and one shock wave tends to the contact discontinuity solution to transport equations as the pressure vanishes.
