Abstract:
The accuracy and stability of an explicit numerical algorithm for modeling the flows of a mixture of compressible gases in the transonic regime are investigated by the example of solving the Riemann problem on the decay of a gas-dynamic discontinuity between different gases. The algorithm is constructed using the finite volume method based on the regularized gas dynamics equations for a mixture of gases. A method for suppressing nonphysical oscillations occurring behind the contact discontinuity is found.
