Abstract

It is known that Flux Corrected Transport algorithms can produce entropy-violating solutions of hyperbolic conservation laws. Our purpose is to design flux correction with maximal antidiffusive fluxes to obtain entropy solutions of scalar hyperbolic conservation laws. To do this we consider a hybrid difference scheme that is a linear combination of a monotone scheme and a scheme of high-order accuracy. The flux limiters for the hybrid scheme are calculated from a corresponding optimization problem. Constraints for the optimization problem consist of inequalities that are valid for the monotone scheme and applied to the hybrid scheme. We apply the discrete cell entropy inequality with the proper numerical entropy flux to single out a physically relevant solution of scalar hyperbolic conservation laws. A nontrivial approximate solution of the optimization problem yields expressions to compute the required flux limiters. We present examples that show that not all numerical entropy fluxes guarantee to single out a physically correct solution of scalar hyperbolic conservation laws.
