Mass conservation, positivity and energy identical-relation preserving scheme for the Navier-Stokes equations with variable density

preprint2026arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper, we consider a mass conservation, positivity and energy identical-relation preserving scheme for the Navier-Stokes equations with variable density. Utilizing the square transformation, we first ensure the positivity of the numerical fluid density, which is form-invariant and regardless of the discrete scheme. Then, by proposing a new recovery technique to eliminate the numerical dissipation of the energy and to balance the loss of the mass when approximating the reformation form, we preserve the original energy identical-relation and mass conservation of the proposed scheme. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work that can preserve the original energy identical-relation for the Navier-Stokes equations with variable density. Moreover, the error estimates of the considered scheme are derived. Finally, we show some numerical examples to verify the correctness and efficiency.
