Multi-dimensional hydrodynamic code SOVA for interfacial flows: Application to the thermal layer effect

Abstract.

Eulerian, three-dimensional, numerical code, which conserves mass, momentum and energy simultaneously both in the Lagrangian and remap steps, is developed. The use of special form of linear viscosity provides a weaker time step restriction as compared with the Courant condition. The code is designed to investigate the multi-material problems, including dusty flows. The performance of the code is illustrated by the modeling of shock wave interaction with a dusty thermal layer.
