A new shock-capturing numerical scheme for ideal hydrodynamics

Nuclear Theory 2015-06-11 v1

Abstract

We present a new algorithm for solving ideal relativistic hydrodynamics based on Godunov method with an exact solution of Riemann problem for an arbitrary equation of state. Standard numerical tests are executed, such as the sound wave propagation and the shock tube problem. Low numerical viscosity and high precision are attained with proper discretization.
