Entropy is a state variable that may be obtained from any thermodynamically complete equation of state (EOS). However, hydrocode calculations that output the entropy often contain numerical errors; this is not because of the EOS, but rather the solution techniques that are used in hydrocodes (especially Eulerian) such as convection, remapping, and artificial viscosity. Here, in this work, empirical correlations are investigated to reduce the errors in entropy without altering the solution techniques for the conservation of mass, momentum, and energy. Specifically, these correlations are developed for the function of entropy ZS, and they depend upon the net artificial viscous work, as determined via Sandia National Laboratories’ shock physics hydrocode CTH. These results are a continuation of a prior effort to implement the entropy-based CREST reactive burn model in CTH, and they are presented here to stimulate further interest from the shock physics community. Future work is planned to study higher-dimensional shock waves, shock wave interactions, and possible ties between the empirical correlations and a physical law.
