High order schemes for cylindrical/spherical coordinates with radial symmetry

چکیده
In this paper, we implement finite volume Weighted Essentially Non-Oscillatory (WENO) schemes in both cylindrical and spherical coordinate systems for the Euler equations with cylindrical or spherical symmetry. We analyze three different spatial discretizations: one that is shown to be high-order accurate but not conservative, one conservative but not high-order accurate, and one both high-order accurate and conservative. For cylindrical and spherical coordinates, we present convergence results for the advection equation and the Euler equations with an acoustics problem. We then use the Sod shock tube and the Sedov point-blast problems in spherical coordinates coordinates to verify our analysis and implementations.

Positivity-preserving and symmetry-preserving Lagrangian schemes for compressible Euler equations in cylindrical coordinates
For a Lagrangian scheme defined in the cylindrical coordinates, two important issues are whether the scheme can maintain spherical symmetry (symmetry-preserving) and whether the scheme can maintain positivity of density and internal energy (positivity-preserving). While there were previous results in the literature either for symmetry-preserving in the cylindrical coordinates or for positivity-...
متن کاملSecond order symmetry-preserving conservative Lagrangian scheme for compressible Euler equations in two-dimensional cylindrical coordinates
In applications such as astrophysics and inertial confine fusion, there are many threedimensional cylindrical-symmetric multi-material problems which are usually simulated by Lagrangian schemes in the two-dimensional cylindrical coordinates. For this type of simulation, a critical issue for the schemes is to keep the spherical symmetry in the cylindrical coordinate system if the original physic...
متن کاملImprovement on spherical symmetry in two-dimensional cylindrical coordinates for a class of control volume Lagrangian schemes
In [14], Maire developed a class of cell-centered Lagrangian schemes for solving Euler equations of compressible gas dynamics in cylindrical coordinates. These schemes use a node-based discretization of the numerical fluxes. The control volume version has several distinguished properties, including the conservation of mass, momentum and total energy and compatibility with the geometric conserva...
متن کاملWENO Schemes for Cylindrical and Spherical Grid
In this paper, we apply the high order WENO schemes to uniform cylindrical and spherical grid. Many 2-D and 3-D problems can be solved in 1-D equations if they have angular and radial symmetry. The reduced equations will typically involve geometric source terms. Therefore, conventional numerical schemes for Cartesian grid may not work well. We propose several approaches to apply the high order ...
متن کاملA cell-centered Lagrangian scheme with the preservation of symmetry and conservation properties for compressible fluid flows in two-dimensional cylindrical geometry
We develop a new cell-centered control volume Lagrangian scheme for solving Euler equations of compressible gas dynamics in cylindrical coordinates. Based on a local coordinate transform strategy, the scheme can preserve one-dimensional spherical symmetry in a two-dimensional cylindrical geometry when computed on an equal-angle-zoned initial grid. Unlike many previous area weighted schemes that...
