Abstract
Flux-corrected transport (FCT) is one of the flux limiter methods. Unlike the total variation diminishing methods, obtaining the known FCT formulas for computing flux limiters is not quite transparent, and their transformation is not obvious when the original differential operator changes. We propose a novel formal mathematical approach to design flux correction for weighted hybrid difference schemes by using linear programming. The hybrid scheme is a linear combination of a monotone scheme and a high order scheme. The determination of maximal antidiffusive fluxes is treated as an optimization problem with a linear objective function. To obtain constraints for the optimization problem, inequalities that are valid for the monotone difference scheme are applied to the hybrid difference scheme. The numerical solution of the nonlinear optimization problem is reduced to the iterative solution of linear programming problems. A nontrivial approximate solution of the corresponding linear programming problem can be treated as the required flux limiters. We present flux correction formulas for scalar hyperbolic conservation laws and convection-diffusion equations. The designed flux-corrected transport for scalar hyperbolic conservation laws yields entropy solutions. Numerical results are presented.
