Abstract
We propose a numerical method adapted to the modelling of phase transitions in compressible fluid flows. Pressure laws taking into account phase transitions are complex and lead to difficulties such as the non-uniqueness of entropy solutions. In order to avoid these difficulties, we propose a projection finite volume scheme. This scheme is based on a Riemann solver with a simpler pressure law and an entropy maximization procedure that enables us to recover the original complex pressure law. Several numerical experiments are presented that validate this approach.
