Abstract

In this paper, we generalize the high order well-balanced finite difference weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) scheme, designed earlier by us in Xing and Shu (2005, J. Comput. phys. 208, 206---227) for the shallow water equations, to solve a wider class of hyperbolic systems with separable source terms including the elastic wave equation, the hyperbolic model for a chemosensitive movement, the nozzle flow and a two phase flow model. Properties of the scheme for the shallow water equations (Xing and Shu 2005, J. Comput. phys. 208, 206---227), such as the exact preservation of the balance laws for certain steady state solutions, the non-oscillatory property for general solutions with discontinuities, and the genuine high order accuracy in smooth regions, are maintained for the scheme when applied to this general class of hyperbolic systems
