An Eulerian-Lagrangian Method for Coupled Parabolic-Hyperbolic Equations.

Seaid, M.

Abstract

We present an Eulerian–Lagrangian method for the numerical solution of coupled parabolic-hyperbolic equations. The method combines advantages of the modified method of characteristics to accurately solve the hyperbolic equations with an Eulerian method to discretize the parabolic equations. The Runge–Kutta Chebyshev scheme is used for the time integration. The implementation of the proposed method differs from its Eulerian counterpart in the fact that it is applied during each time step, along the characteristic curves rather than in the time direction. The focus is on constructing explicit schemes with a large stability region to solve coupled radiation hydrodynamics models. Numerical results are presented for two test examples in coupled convection-radiation and conduction–radiation problems.
