Stability of the Difference Schemes for the Equations of Weakly Compressible Liquid
Abstract A priory estimates of the stability in the sense of the initial data of the difference scheme approximating weakly compressible liquid equations in the Riemann invariants have been obtained. These estimates have been proved without any assumptions about the properties of the solution of the differential problem and depend only on the behavior of the initial conditions. As distinct from linear problems, the obtained estimates of stability in the general case exist only for a finite instant of time t≤t_0. In particular, this is confirmed by the fact, that nonfulfilment of these stability conditions lead to the appearance of supersonic flows or domains with large gradients. The questions of uniqueness and convergence of the difference solution are considered also. The results of the computating experiment confirming the theoretical conclusions are given.
