Verification and Validation of Two Hydrodynamic Methods for Simulations of High Energy Density Physics Problems

Figure 2

2D density results from xRAGE for the isentropic spherical compression problem at t = 0.5  s, using the default method without VOF (red) and the unsplit method (blue). These simulations have a uniform spatial resolution of 0.00125 cm. For each value of radial distance, simulation results at seven distinct solid angles are presented.
