Piston Problems of Two-Dimensional Chaplygin Gas

In this paper, the authors study the piston problem for the unsteady two-dimensional Euler system for a Chaplygin gas. The angle of the piston is allowed to vary in a wide range. The piston can be pushed forward into the static gas, or pulled back from the gas. The global existence of solution to the piston problem with any initial speed is established, and the structures of the global solutions are clearly described. The authors find that for the proceeding piston problem the front shock can be detached, attached or even adhere to the surface of the piston depending on the parameters of the flow and the piston; while for the receding problem the front rarefaction wave is always detached and the concentration will never occur.

Local existence and non-relativistic limits of shock solutions to a multidimensional piston problem for the relativistic Euler equations

The multidimensional piston problem is a special initial-boundary value problem. The boundary conditions are given in two conical surfaces: one is the boundary of the piston, and the other is the shock whose location is to be determined later. In this paper, we are concerned with spherically symmetric piston problem for the relativistic Euler equations. A local shock front solution with the state equation p = a ² ρ, a is a constant and has been established by the Newton iteration. To overcome the difficulty caused by the free boundary, we introduce a coordinate transformation to fix it and employ the linear iteration scheme to establish a sequence of approximate solutions to the auxiliary problems by iteration. In each step, the value of the solution of the previous problem is taken as the data to determine the solution of the next problem. We obtain the existence of the original problem by establishing the convergence of these sequences. Meanwhile, we establish the convergence of the local solution as c → ∞ to the corresponding solution of the classical non-relativistic Euler equations.     

Global existence of shock front solutions in 1-dimensional piston problem in the relativistic Euler equations

The paper studies the 1-D piston problem of the relativistic Euler equations when the speed of the piston is a perturbation of a constant. A sequence of approximate solutions constructed by a modified Glimm scheme is proved to be convergent to the weak solution (which includes a strong leading shock) to the piston problem. In particular, we give the precise estimates on the reflection of the perturbed waves on the piston and the leading shock.

On the acceleration of shock waves and concentration of energy

By a series of simple examples related to exact solutions of problems in gas dynamics and magnetohydrodynamics, possible mechanisms of acceleration of shock waves and concentration of energy are elucidated. The acceleration of a shock wave is investigated in the problem of motion of a plane piston at a constant velocity in the case when the initial density of the medium drops in the presence of constant counterpressure. It is shown that in this situation a “blow-up” regime is induced by a shock wave going to infinity in finite time even for limited work of the piston. A simple spherically symmetric solution with a converging shock wave is constructed and shown to lead to the concentration of energy. A general method for solving one-dimensional non-self-similar problems related to matching the equilibrium state to a motion with homogeneous deformation on a shock wave is discussed; this method leads to a solution in quadratures.     

Self-similar solutions of the Euler equations with spherical symmetry

We consider self-similar flows arising from the uniform expansion of a spherical piston and preceded by a shock wave front. With appropriate boundary conditions imposed on the piston surface and the spherical shock, the isentropic compressible Euler system is transformed into a nonlinear ODE system. We formulate the problem in a simple form in order to present the analytic proof of the global existence of positive smooth solutions.     

Approximate calculation method for one-dimensional gas flows induced by nonmonotonic motion of a piston : PMM vol. 40, n 6, 1976, pp. 1058–1064

The problem of one-dimensional piston which at the beginning moves with increasing velocity into a gas at rest, then is decelerated, and finally stops, is solved by means of special series. The gas flow field is constructed by a successive joining of three characteristic Cauchy problems in terms of their characteristic solutions. Generalized solution of the problem of instantaneous arrest of the piston is derived. Obtained equations are used for the approximate calculation of the motion of generated shock waves.Representation of solutions of certain boundary value problems for nonlinear equations of the hyperbolic kind in the form of special series was proposed in [1, 2], The problem of the piston moving into a gas at rest is solved there, and the obtained solution was used for an approximate determination of the generated shock wave. The piston velocity was assumed to be monotonically increasing. That problem is solved here with the use of similar series in the case when the piston velocity is nonmonotonous,Numerical methods make it possible at present to determine one-dimensional flows similar to that considered below, and multidimensional problems can be solved by the method proposed in [1, 2]. The use of the proposed scheme for solving the problem of the multidimensional piston, whose velocity is nonmonotonous, does not present theoretical difficulties, but except that the formulas are more cumbersome.     

A singular multi-dimensional piston problem in compressible flow

This paper concerns the multi-dimensional piston problem, which is a special initial boundary value problem of multi-dimensional unsteady potential flow equation. The problem is defined in a domain bounded by two conical surfaces, one of them is shock, whose location is also to be determined. By introducing self-similar coordinates, the problem can be reduced to a free boundary value problem of an elliptic equation. The existence of the problem is proved by using partial hodograph transformation and nonlinear alternating iteration. The result also shows the stability of the structure of shock front in symmetric case under small perturbation.
