Abstract

In that paper, we show that the technic of kinetic schemes previously used in cartesian geometry to solve the compressible Euler equations can be naturally applied to axisymmetrical and spherical geometries. Indeed, we show that it is easy to build an explicit monodimensionnal axisymmetrical or spherical kinetic scheme which preserves the positivity of the density and of the internal energy under a CFL criteria.
