摘要: In this research, we studied numerically nonlinear evolutions of the Kelvin–Helmholtz instability (KHI) with and without thermal conduction, aka, ablative KHI (AKHI) classical (CKHI). The second order conduction term a variable conductivity coefficient is added to energy equation in Euler equations AKHI investigate effect on evolution large small scale structures within shear layer which separate fluids different velocities. inviscid hyperbolic flux computed via fifth weighted essentially nonoscillatory finite difference scheme temperature solved by an implicit fourth coefficients parabolic avoid severe time step restriction imposed stability numerical scheme. As opposed CKHI, fine such as vortical are suppressed from formi...
