چکیده
Based on the high order essentially non-oscillatory (ENO) Lagrangian type scheme on quadrilateral meshes presented in our earlier work [3], in this paper we develop a third order conservative Lagrangian type scheme on curvilinear meshes for solving the Euler equations of compressible gas dynamics. The main purpose of this work is to demonstrate our claim in [3] that the accuracy degeneracy phenomenon observed for the high order Lagrangian type scheme is due to the error from the quadrilateral mesh with straight-line edges, which restricts the accuracy of the resulting scheme to at most second order. The accuracy test given in this paper shows that the third order Lagrangian type scheme can actually obtain uniformly third order accuracy even on distorted meshes by using curvilinear meshes. Numerical examples are also presented to verify the performance of the third order scheme on curvilinear meshes in terms of resolution for discontinuities and non-oscillatory properties.

High order conservative Lagrangian schemes with Lax-Wendroff type time discretization for the compressible Euler equations
In this paper, we explore the Lax-Wendroff (LW) type time discretization as an alternative procedure to the high order Runge-Kutta time discretization adopted for the high order essentially non-oscillatory (ENO) Lagrangian schemes developed in [2, 4]. The LW time discretization is based on a Taylor expansion in time, coupled with a local CauchyKowalewski procedure to utilize the partial differe...
متن کاملPositivity-preserving Lagrangian scheme for multi-material compressible flow
Robustness of numerical methods has attracted an increasing interest in the community of computational fluid dynamics. One mathematical aspect of robustness for numerical methods is the positivity-preserving property. At high Mach numbers or for flows near vacuum, solving the conservative Euler equations may generate negative density or internal energy numerically, which may lead to nonlinear i...
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...

We develop, implement and test a new third order accurate MUSCL type nite volume scheme for the two-dimensional Euler equations of com-pressible uid ow and compare the scheme with an anlogous second order scheme. It turns out that for many applications the third order scheme is less eecient than the second order one.

We present a high-order cell-centered Lagrangian scheme for solving the two-dimensional gas dynamics equations on unstructured meshes. A node-based discretization of the numerical fluxes for the physical conservation laws allows to derive a scheme that is compatible with the geometric conservation law (GCL). Fluxes are computed using a nodal solver which can be viewed as a two-dimensional exten...
