Popis: Radiation hydrodynamics simulations based on the one-fluid two-temperature model may violate the law of energy conservation because the governing equations are expressed in a nonconservative formulation. Here, we maintain the important physical requirements by employing a strategy based on the key concept that the mathematical structures associated with the conservative and nonconservative equations are preserved, even at the discrete level. To this end, we discretize the conservation laws and transform them via exact algebraic operations. The proposed scheme maintains the global conservation errors within the round-off level. In addition, a numerical experiment concerning the shock tube problem suggests that the proposed scheme well agrees with the jump conditions at the discontinuities regulated by the Rankine-Hugoniot relationship. The generalized derivation allows us to employ arbitrary central difference, artificial dissipation, and Runge-Kutta methods.
