Title: SOLA-STAR: a one-dimensional ICED-ALE hydrodynamics program for spherically symmetric flows

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/5095480· OSTI ID:5095480

This report describes a simple, general-purpose, and efficient algorithm for solving one-dimensional spherically symmetric, transient fluid-dynamics problems using a variation of the ICED-ALE technique. Included are the finite difference equations, three test problems that illustrate various capabilities of the program, and a complete code description, including a listing, sample data decks and output, a summary of important variable names, and hints for conversion to other operating systems.
