Second Order Positive Schemes by means of Flux Limiters for the Advection Equation
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we study first and second order positive numerical methods for the advection equation. In particular, we consider the direct discretization of the model problem and comment on its superiority to the so called method of lines. Moreover, we investigate the accuracy, stability and positivity properties of the direct discretization. The numerical results related to several test problems are reported.

A total variation diminishing high resolution scheme for nonlinear conservation laws
In this paper we propose a novel high resolution scheme for scalar nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws. The aim of high resolution schemes is to provide at least second order accuracy in smooth regions and produce sharp solutions near the discontinuities. We prove that the proposed scheme that is derived by utilizing an appropriate flux limiter is nonlinear stable in the sense of total varia...
متن کاملCalculation of Complicated Flows, Using First and Second-Order Schemes (RESEARCH NOTE)
The first-order schemes used for discretisation of the convective terms are straightforward and easy to use, with the drawback of introducing numerical diffusion. Application of the secondorder schemes, such as QUICK scheme, is a treatment to reduce the numerical diffusion, but increasing convergence oscillation is unavoidable. The technique used in this study is a compromise between the above-...
متن کاملDetermining The Effective Resolution of Advection Schemes
The effective resolution of a numerical scheme describes the smallest spatial scale (largest wavenumber) that is completely resolved by that scheme. This is often significantly larger than the model’s grid spacing, resulting in poor representation of features that are of the order of the grid scale. We present two methods to determine the effective resolution of numerical advection schemes. An ...
متن کاملPositivity-preserving nonstandard finite difference Schemes for simulation of advection-diffusion reaction equations
Systems in which reaction terms are coupled to diffusion and advection transports arise in a wide range of chemical engineering applications, physics, biology and environmental. In these cases, the components of the unknown can denote concentrations or population sizes which represent quantities and they need to remain positive. Classical finite difference schemes may produce numerical drawback...
متن کاملFinite difference TVD scheme for modeling two-dimensional advection-dispersion
This paper describes the development of the stream-tube based dispersion model for modeling contaminant transport in open channels. The operator-splitting technique is employed to separate the 2D contaminant transport equation into the pure advection and pure dispersion equations. Then the total variation diminishing (TVD) schemes are combined with the second-order Lax-Wendroff and third–order ...
