Abstract

AbstractThe one‐dimensional flow field generated by the passage of a shock wave in a rigid, thermoelastic porous foam has been simulated using a two‐phase mathematical model. The work presented here makes use of the weighted average flux method to solve the system of six equations that govern the problem. Spurious oscillations are eliminated through the application of total variation diminishing limiting methods. Four different limiters were tested: van Leer, SuperA, MinA and van Albada. Numerical tests were carried out to verify the performance of each flux limiter in terms of accuracy. The results were compared to analytical and previously obtained data to assess the performance of the mathematical model. Excellent agreement was obtained. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
