Presentation
BEARCLAW is a AMR code based on a Riemann solver aim to be used for astrophysical application.
The hydro part of the solver have been tested using the suite in the book by Toro.
1D Test: Rossmanith Thesis /Ryu & Jones
This test has the folowing left and right state
density | Vx | Vy | Vz | P | Bx | By | Bz | |
left | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0.7 | 0 | 0 |
right | 0.3 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0.2 | 0.7 | 1 | 0 |
The fine line represent the analytically calculated "plateau". Done with
an order 2, no transverse wave and a Lax-Friedrichs wave limiter.
We have plot the density, Vx, Vy, Vz, By and Bz
1D Test: Balsara
this test has 7 discontinuities and allow us to test the abilities of the code to test the slow and fast waves of each families. MUSCL is working much better than wavwbear which had a "spike" at the last discontinuity.
2D test: inclined shock
the low resolution version give already a nice result. There is an oscillation, stronger than
in the 1D case, but the resolution is much less.
with MUSCL the movie of the density evolution UP to negativ density and dies...
2D Test: Orzag & Tang Vortex
For this test we show the density with and without divergence cleaning.
