Abstract

A fractional step method that provides approximate solutions of a three-phase flow model is presented herein. The three-fluid model enables to handle smooth or discontinuous unsteady solutions. The numerical method is grounded on the use of the entropy inequality that governs smooth solutions of the set of PDEs. The evolution step relies on an explicit scheme, while implicit schemes are embedded in the relaxation step. The main properties of the scheme are given. Numerical approximations of two basic Riemann problems are eventually presented.
