roe solver with entropy fix
 

Hi I am working with a code that uses Roe solver with entropy fix.I checked the Roe paper,most of this code matches with the paper but I can not figure out 6 line of this code. I guess it is related to entropy fix issue.

I read the following papers: 1-P.L. Roe, Journal of Computational Physics,43,(1981),"Approximate Riemann solvers,Parameter vectors and difference schemes" 2-P.L. Roe, J. Pike, Computing methods in Applied Science and Engineering,(1984),(North-Holland),"Efficient Construction and Utilization of Approximate Riemann Solution" 3-P.L. Roe, SIAM J. Sci. Stat. Comput.,Vol 13,No 2,1992,"Sonic Flux Formulae" 4-the book by Toro,"Riemann solvers"

I wonder if any expert help me or refer me to a reference regarding this issue.

And this is the code(I specified the line that I have problem with ******):

SUBROUTINE riemann(nhat,ds,Qleft,Qright,flux) !................................................. ......... ! ! compute the Roe flux with entropy fix. !................................................. .........

Re: roe solver with entropy fix
 

Yes, those lines of code are indeed the entropy fix.

I'm at home so don't have access to papers etc, but the paper you want is that by Harten and Hyman (probably in J. Comp. Physics) which explains an entropy fix and its application.
