We consider multidimensional conservation laws with discontinuous flux, which are regularized with vanishing diffusion and dispersion terms and with smoothing of the flux discontinuities. We use the approach ofH-measures to investigate the zero diffusion-dispersion-smoothing limit.

In this work we study two-phase flow with gravity either in 1-rock homogeneous media or 2-rocks composed media, this phenomenon can be modeled by a non-linear scalar conservation law with continuous flux function or discontinuous flux function, respectively. Our study is essentially from a numerical point of view, we apply the new Lagrangian-Eulerian finite difference method developed by Abreu and Pérez  and the Lax-Friedrichs classic method to obtain numerical entropic solutions. Comparisons between numerical and analytical solutions show the efficiency of the methods even for discontinuous flux function.

Industrial Context

We study here a model of conservative nonlinear conservation law with a flux function with discontinuous coefficients, namely the equation ut + (k(x)u(1 - u))x = 0. It is a particular entropy condition on the line of discontinuity of the coefficient k which ensures the uniqueness of the entropy solution. This condition is discussed and justified. On the other hand, we perform a numerical analysis of the problem. Two finite volume schemes, the Godunov scheme and the VFRoe-ncv scheme, are proposed to simulate the conservation law. They are compared with two finite volume methods classically used in an industrial context. Several tests confirm the good behavior of both new schemes, especially through the discontinuity of permeability k (whereas a loss of accuracy may be detected when industrial methods are performed). Moreover, a modified MUSCL method which accounts for stationary states is introduced.

We study a scalar conservation law whose flux has a single spatial discontinuity. There are many notions of (entropy) solution, the relevant concept being determined by the application. We focus on the so-called vanishing viscosity solution. We utilize a Kružkov-type entropy inequality which generalizes the one in [K. H. Karlsen, N. H. Risebro and J. D. Towers, [Formula: see text]-stability for entropy solutions of nonlinear degenerate parabolic convection–diffusion equations with discontinuous coefficients, Skr. K. Nor. Vidensk. Selsk. 3 (2003) 1–49], singles out the vanishing viscosity solution whether or not the crossing condition is satisfied, and has a discrete version satisfied by the Godunov variant of the finite difference scheme of [S. Diehl, On scalar conservation laws with point source and discontinuous flux function, SIAM J. Math. Anal. 26(6) (1995) 1425–1451]. We show that the solutions produced by that scheme converge to the unique vanishing viscosity solution. The scheme does not require a Riemann solver for the discontinuous flux problem. This makes its implementation simple even when the flux is multimodal, and there are multiple flux crossings.
