A New Computational Fluid Dynamics Code I: Fyris Alpha
arXiv:1003.0724 · doi:10.1007/s10509-010-0336-8
Abstract
A new hydrodynamics code aimed at astrophysical applications has been developed. The new code and algorithms are presented along with a comprehensive suite of test problems in one, two, and three dimensions. The new code is shown to be robust and accurate, equalling or improving upon a set of comparison codes. Fyris Alpha will be made freely available to the scientific community.
