A fully implicit finite difference scheme has been developed to solve the hydrodynamic equations coupled with radiation transport. Solution of the time-dependent radiation transport equation is obtained using the discrete ordinates method and the energy flow into the Lagrangian meshes as a result of

β¦ Synopsis
A numerical method is reviewed and described in detail which allows an accurate solution of the equations of radiation hydrodynamics for one-dimensional spherical conΓΏgurations. Such problems occur in a large variety of astrophysical situations where the interaction of matter with radiation (and vice versa) plays an important role (e.g. stellar structure, stellar pulsations, star and planet formation, radiation driven winds, stellar explosions, etc.). The method relies on a conservative formulation of the physical equations and uses an adaptive grid to resolve and trace any steep features developing within the ow. Due to the wide temporal as well as spatial range of physical time scales the solution is advanced in time by an implicit discretization scheme resulting in a nonlinear system of algebraic equations which has to be solved by a Newton-Raphson procedure. A few examples concerning stellar pulsations of a class of luminous blue stars closes this article.

We present a fully second order implicit/explicit time integration technique for solving hydrodynamics coupled with nonlinear heat conduction problems. The idea is to hybridize an implicit and an explicit discretization in such a way to achieve second order time convergent calculations. In this scop

For the purposes of testing numerical methods, we develop two manufactured solutions to the P 1 radiation-hydrodynamics system. One solution is designed to test numerical methods in the equilibrium diffusion limit, while the other solution is valid in the streaming (small absorption) regime. We then
