Abstract
A state-of-the-art 3+1 dimensional cascade + viscous hydro + cascade model vHLLE+UrQMD has been applied to heavy ion collisions in RHIC Beam Energy Scan range GeV. Based on comparison to available experimental data it was estimated that an effective value of shear viscosity over entropy density ratio in hydrodynamic stage has to decrease from to as collision energy increases from to GeV, and to stay at for GeV. In this work we show how an equation of state with first order phase transition affects the hydrodynamic evolution at those collision energies and changes the results of the model as compared to "default scenario" with a crossover type EoS from chiral model.
