3 hydrodynamic equations are derivable from microscopic kinetic equations (Liouville, Boltzmann) under two assumptions (i) microscopic behaviour of single particles can be neglected (λ << L) Some basic hydrodynamics (ii) forces between particles saturate (short range forces!)

4 Some basic hydrodynamics E t

5 Some basic hydrodynamics hydrodynamic approximation holds --> set of conservation laws simplest case: single, ideal, non-magnetic fluid; no external forces mass: t v = 0 momentum: energy: v t v v pi = 0 E E p v = 0 t hyperbolic system of PDEs

6 hydrodynamic approximation holds --> general case: additional equations and/or additional source terms Some basic hydrodynamics describe effects due to viscosity, reactions, transport, radiation, magnetic fields, self-gravity, relativity, etc

7 Some basic hydrodynamics eg., viscous, self-gravitating flow mass: momentum: energy: Poisson eq.: v = 0 t v v v p I π t E E p v h π v t Φ = 4πG = Φ = v Φ

8 Astropysical applications: - viscosity & heat conduction often negligibly small (except in shock waves) --> inviscous Euler eqs. instead of viscous Navier-Stokes eqs. are solved Some basic hydrodynamics - numerical methods posses numerical viscosity (depending on grid resolution) --> strange situation: One tries to solve inviscous Euler eqs, but instead solves a viscous variant, different from NS eqs!!

9 hydrodynamic equations are incomplete (closure relation missing) --> equation of state required to close system p = p(,t), ɛ = ɛ(,t) Some basic hydrodynamics discontinuous solutions of Euler eqs. exist (weak solutions: shocks, contact discont.) --> conservation laws in integral form jump conditions (Rankine-Hugoniot)

10 Some basic hydrodynamics flows characterizable by dimensionless numbers Reynolds number: Re = ul/ν (ν: kinematic viscosity) measures relative strength of inertia & dissipation; often very large in astrophysics (>10 10 ) For all flows there exists a critical Reynolds number, above which the flow becomes turbulent! Prandtl number: Pr = ν κ (κ: conductivity) measures relative strength of dissipation & conduction

11 evolution equations: Set of 1 st order PDEs one way to solve equations: discretization in space & time, i.e. PDEs --> set of coupled algebraic eqs --> introduces unavoidable errors --> It is crucial to use methods, which minimize the errors! The art of CFD

12 The art of CFD numerical diffusion numerical dispersion

13 The art of CFD High Resolution Shock Capturing Schemes (HRSC) (most appropriate for supersonic flows) Methods for hyperbolic system of conservation laws Upwind methods (along characteristics) Enforcing conservation ensures correct dynamics of discontinuities High order spatial accuracy in smooth regions of the flow reduces to first order at discontinuities

14 hydrodynamic equations: The art of CFD - quasi-linear hyperbolic system of conservation laws U x, t t F U x, t x =0 - can be rewritten using the Jacobian of the flux vector F(U) 1 U t F U U x =0 - integration over finite (control) volume: x 1, x 2 t 1, t 2 x1 U x, t 2 dx= x1 U x, t 1 t1 x 2 x 2 t 2 F U x 1, t dt t1 t 2 F U x 2, t dt

15 Finite Volume Formulation Differential form assume smoothness of solution No viscous terms Euler equations allow discontinuous solutions integral form of equations Euler equations in Conservative form (from G.Bodo)

17 Multidimensional Strang Splitting Multidimensional integration is achieved by solving 1 D sub problem: Alternating directions gurantees O( t 3 ), e.g., in 2D: (from G.Bodo)

18 Handling discontinuities p1 p2 x Example of a problem with discontinous initial conditions (from G.Bodo)

19 numerical derived local The art of CFD U i n 1 = U i n t x F xi 1 2 F xi 1 2 fluxes are 1 from solution of Riemann problems ---> requires: complete spectral information!

20 Godunov Method Building 1 D block: In Hyperbolic systems information propagate along characteristics, at finite speed; we need a numerical flux function: U(x i+1/2,t) is the solution of the Riemann Problem: Ui 1 Ui Ui+ (from G.Bodo) xi 3/2 xi 1/2 Xi+1/2 1 Xi+3/2

21 Higher order extension Interpolation inside cells Use slope limiters to enforce monotonicity (avoid appearance of new maxima) Higher order interpolation PPM (Piecewise Parabolic Method) uses parabolic interpolation + monotonicity constraints + other controls of discontinuities (from G.Bodo)

22 The art of CFD diffusivity of various finite volume methods

23 The art of CFD simple test problem more difficult test problem

24 The art of CFD test problem which cannot be handled by linearized Riemann solver proposed by Roe

25 Choice of coordinate system when simulating multi-dimensional flow: - Lagrangian/comoving coordinates inappropriate shear flow and vortices --> grid tangling - Eulerian coordinates better choice if advection terms are discretized with 'minimal' numerical diffusion The art of CFD - SPH: free-lagrange method, but more diffusive

26 Methods widely used in astrophysics: - finite difference/volume schemes ~ 10 2 to 10 3 zones / dimension - smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) ~ 10 4 to 10 7 particles The art of CFD

27 Computer > The art of CFD resources required: CPU time - 20 variables zones (present record: ~ ) timesteps Ops/zone/variable/timestep operations / simulation

28 > 3D - ~ The art of CFD - present day computer Mflops (PC) [ ~ CRAY-1 in 1980! ] Tflop ( supercomputer, e.g. 512 PE IBM Power 4) 1 1D simulation: ~ minutes on PC simulation: ~ weeks on supercomputer output data: ~ Gbyte / model ---> data analysis Tbyte / simulation is non trivial!

29 Hydrodynamics of stellar explosions Numerical challenges (I): Extreme range of scales both in time & space has to be treated properly scale problem in TNSNe: 1 l burn ~ 10-3 cm l WD ~ cm τ burn ~ s τ WD ~ s --> factor 10 11

34 Numerical challenges (III): Nucleosynthesis - Common practice (in 1D) nowadays * online reaction networks (several 100 species) * reduced network for energy generation + 1 post processing (easy with Lagrangian codes) Hydrodynamics of stellar explosions - Multi-dimensional flows Lagrangian codes inappropriate --> Eulerian codes + marker particle method

35 Numerical challenges (III): Nucleosynthesis - Marker particle method A set of marker particles is distributed properly across regions expect to burn 1 and Hydrodynamics of stellar explosions advected with the flow and their T and ρ history is recorded for the post-processing
