Purpose
The subject of the fractional calculus theory has gained considerable popularity and importance due to their attractive applications in widespread fields of physics and engineering. The purpose of this paper is to present results on the numerical simulation for time-fractional partial differential equations arising in transonic multiphase flows, which are described by the Tricomi and the Keldysh equations of Robin functions types.
Design/methodology/approach
Those resulting mathematical models are solved by using the reproducing kernel method, which provide appropriate solutions in term of infinite series formula. Convergence analysis, error estimations and error bounds under some hypotheses, which provide the theoretical basis of the proposed method are also discussed.
Findings
The dynamical properties of these numerical solutions are discussed and the profiles of several representative numerical solutions are illustrated. Finally, the prospects of the gained results and the method are discussed through academic validations.
Originality/value
In this paper and for the first time: the authors presented results on the numerical simulation for classes of time-fractional PDEs such as those found in the transonic multiphase flows. The authors applied the reproducing kernel method systematically for the numerical solutions of time-fractional Tricomi and Keldysh equations subject to Robin functions types.
