Onedimensional Hydrodynamics: Simple Version

• This version of the Applet uses a simple direct discretisation which is not strictly conservative. In all other respects, it is close to the conservative version, and solves the one-dimensional evolution of density, velocity, and temperature in a linear shock tube.
• Explanations and Help
• The only difference is the application of a small amount of smoothing which counteracts the instabilities of the discretisation method in the presence of strong jumps or steep gradients in the initial profiles.
• Advective transport is dealt here, using the same discretisation approach, but solves only the mass equation with a user-given velocity field.
