The asymptotic behavior of solutions toward the superposition of contact discontinuity and shock wave is established under some smallness conditions. To do this, we first construct a new viscous contact wave such that the momentum equation is satisfied exactly and then determine the shift of the viscous shock wave. By using them together with an inequality concerning the heat kernel in the half space, we obtain the desired a priori estimates. The proof is based on the elementary energy method by the anti-derivative argument.展开更多

The singular limit we consider corresponds to the physical problem of letting the Bouguer number infinite while keeping the Boltzmann number constant. In the case when the corresponding Euler system admits a contact discontinuity wave, Wang and Xie （2011） [12] recently verified this singular limit and proved that the solution of the compressible radiation hydrodynamics model converges to the strong contact 1 discontinuity wave in the L∞-norm away from the discontinuity line at a rate of ε1/4, as the reciprocal of the Bouguer number tends to zero. In this paper, Wang and Xie＇s convergence rate is improved to ε7/8 by introducing a new a priori assumption and some refined energy estimates. Moreover, it is shown that the radiation flux q tends to zero in the L∞-norm away from the discontinuity line, at a convergence rate as the reciprocal of the Bouguer number tends to zero.展开更多

[15, 22] and Ma [31]）, but there is few result for general gases including ideal polytropic gas. We prove that if the solution to the corresponding Euler system of general gas satisfying （1.4） is piecewise constant with a contact discontinuity, then there exist smooth solutions to Navier-Stokes equations which converge to the inviscid solutions at a rate of k1/4 as the heat-conductivity coefficient k tends to zero. The key is to construct a viscous contact wave of general gas suitable to our proof （see Section 2）. Notice that we have no need to restrict the strength of the contact discontinuity to be small.展开更多

First we construct a viscous contact wave which approximates to the contact discontinuity, which is a basic wave pattern of compressible Euler equation, in finite time as the heat conductivity tends to zero. Then we prove the viscous contact wave is asymptotic stable if the initial perturbations and the strength of the contact wave are small. This generalizes our previous result [6] which is only for polytropic gas.展开更多

In the case of both smooth and Riemann initial data, we show that if the solutions to the corresponding Euler system consist of the composite wave of two rarefaction wave and contact discontinuity, then there exist solutions to Navier-Stokes equations which converge to the Riemman solutions away from the initial layer with a decay rate in any fixed time interval as the viscosity and the heat-conductivity coefficients tend to zero. The proof is based on scaling arguments, the construction of the approximate profiles and delicate energy estimates. Notice that we have no need to restrict the strengths of the contact discontinuity and rarefaction waves to be small.展开更多

The main purpose of this paper is to study the asymptotic stability and convergence rate of the viscous contact wave with a large initial perturbation. For this purpose, we introduce a positive number l in the construction of a smooth approximation of the contact discontinuity for the compressible Euler equations and then we make the quantity l to be sufficiently large in order to control the growth induced by the nonlinearity of the system and the interaction of waves from different families. This makes for us to estimate the L2 norms of the solution and its derivative for perturbation system without assuming that L2 norms of the anti-derivatives and the derivatives of initial perturbations are small.展开更多

The motivation is that the high order anti-diffusive WENO scheme for conservation laws produces sharp resolution of contact discontinuities while keeping high order accuracy for the approximation in the smooth region of the solution. The application of the anti-diffusive high order WENO scheme to the Saint-Venant system of shallow water equations with transport of pollutant achieves high resolution展开更多

Owing to its importance the measurements of H_2O_2 dissociation rate have been reported mostly using the shock tube apparatus. These types of experimental measurements are although quite reliable but require high cost. On the other hand, numerical simulations provide low cost and reliable solutions especially using computation fluid dynamics(CFD) software. In the current study an experimental shock tube flow is modeled using open access platform OpenFOAM to investigate the thermal decomposition of H_2O_2. Using two different convective schemes, limited Linear and upwind, the propagation of shock wave and resultant dissociation reaction are simulated. The results of the simulations are compared with the experimental data. It is observed that the rate constant measured using the simulation data deviates from the experimental results in the low temperature range and approaches the experimental values as the temperature is raised.展开更多
