In this paper, we study the error estimates to sufficiently smooth solutions of the nonlinear scalar conservation laws for the semi-discrete central discontinuous Galerkin (DG) finite element methods on uniform Cartesian meshes. A general approach with an explicitly checkable condition is established for the proof of optimal L2 error estimates of the semi-discrete CDG schemes, and this condition is checked to be valid in one and two dimensions for polynomials of degree up to k = 8. Numerical experiments are given to verify the theoretical results.
