AbstractA fast finite volume solver for hydrostatic multi-layered shallow water flows with mass exchange is investigated. In contrast to many models for multi-layered hydrostatic shallow water flows where the immiscible suppression is assumed, the present model allows for mass exchange between the layers. The multi-layered shallow water equations form a system of conservation laws with source terms for which the computation of the eigenvalues is not trivial. For most practical applications, complex eigenvalues may arise in the system and the multi-layered shallow water equations are not hyperbolic any more. This property makes the application of conventional finite volume methods difficult or even impossible for those methods which require in their formulation the explicit computation of the eigenvalues. In the current study, we propose a finite volume method that avoids the solution of Riemann problems. At each time step, the method consists of two stages to update the new solution. In the first stage, the multilayered shallow water equations are rewritten in a non-conservative form and the intermediate solutions are calculated using the method of characteristics. In the second stage, the numerical fluxes are reconstructed from the intermediate solutions in the first stage and used in the conservative form of the multi-layered shallow water equations. The proposed method is simple to implement, satisfies the conservation property and is suitable for multi-layered shallow water equations on non-flat topography. The proposed finite volume solver is verified against several benchmark tests and it shows good agreement with analytical solutions of the incompressible hydrostat...

AbstractA simple and accurate projection finite volume method is developed for solving shallow water equations in two space dimensions. The proposed approach belongs to the class of fractional-step procedures where the numerical fluxes are reconstructed using the method of characteristics, while an Eulerian method is used to discretize the conservation equations in a finite volume framework. The method is conservative and it combines advantages of the method of characteristics to accurately solve the shallow water flows with an Eulerian finite volume method to discretize the equations. Numerical results are presented for several applications in rotating shallow water problems. The aim of such a method compared to the conventional finite volume methods is to solve shallow water equations efficiently and with an appropriate level of accuracy.
