Abstract

In this paper we propose a new WENO scheme, in which we use a central WENO [G. Capdeville, J. Comput. Phys. 227 (2008) 2977–3014] (CWENO) reconstruction combined with the smoothness indicators introduced in [R. Borges, M. Carmona, B. Costa, W. Sun Don, J. Comput. Phys. 227 (2008) 3191–3211] (IWENO). We use the central-upwind flux [A. Kurganov, S. Noelle, G. Petrova, SIAM J. Sci. Comp. 23 (2001) 707–740] which is simple, universal and efficient. For time integration we use the third order TVD Runge-Kutta scheme. The resulting scheme improves the convergence order at critical points of smooth parts of solution as well as decrease the dissipation near discontinuities. Numerical experiments of the new scheme for one and two-dimensional problems are reported. The results demonstrates that the proposed scheme is superior to the original CWENO and IWENO schemes.
