Mitigating numerical dissipation in simulations of subsonic turbulent flows

James Watt, Christoph Federrath, Claudius Birke +1

Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations of subsonic (Mach number~) turbulence are crucial to our understanding of several processes including oceanic and atmospheric flows, the a…

Maximal turbulence as a selection criterion for measure-valued solutions

Christian Klingenberg, Simon Markfelder, Emil Wiedemann

The quest for a good solution concept for the partial differential equations (PDEs) arising in mathematical fluid dynamics is an outstanding open problem. An important notion of so…

BGK model for rarefied gas in a bounded domain

Hongxu Chen, Christian Klingenberg, Marlies Pirner

We study the Bathnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) equation in a smooth bounded domain featuring a diffusive reflection boundary condition with general collision frequency. We prove that the…

A consistent BGK model with velocity-dependent collision frequency for gas mixtures

Jeff Haack, Cory Hauck, Christian Klingenberg +2

We derive a multi-species BGK model with velocity-dependent collision frequency for a non-reactive, multi-component gas mixture. The model is derived by minimizing a weighted entro…

Thermonuclear explosions of rapidly rotating white dwarfs - II. Detonations

J. M. M. Pfannes, J. C. Niemeyer, W. Schmidt

Context: Superluminous type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) may be explained by super-Chandrasekhar-mass explosions of rapidly rotating white dwarfs (WDs). In a preceding paper, we showed t…

Thermonuclear explosions of rapidly rotating white dwarfs - I. Deflagrations

J. M. M. Pfannes, J. C. Niemeyer, W. Schmidt +1

Context: Turbulent deflagrations of Chandrasekhar mass White Dwarfs are commonly used to model Type Ia Supernova explosions. In this context, rapid rotation of the progenitor star…
