Increasing the approximation order of the Godunov scheme based on a solution to the generalized Riemann problem
Abstract
The generalized Riemann problem is considered in the small neighborhood of a discontinuity point on a plane (x, t). The problem is solved analytically to a first approximation, and analytical formulas are obtained for discontinuity paths on the plane (x, t). The solution is then used to construct the Godunov finite difference scheme. It is shown that, over smooth solutions, the scheme has a second order of approximation with respect to both space and time.
