SOLUTIONS OF THE NOH PROBLEM FOR VARIOUS EQUATIONS OF STATE USING LIE GROUPS by Roy A. Axford* ABSTRACT A method for developing invariant equations of state for which solutions of the Noh problem will exist is developed. The ideal gas equation of state is shown to be a special case of the general method. Explicit solutions of the Noh problem in planar, cylindrical spherical geometry are determined for a Mie-Gruneisen the stiff gas equation of state. 1. INTRODUCTION The general objective of this study is to determine equations of state other than that of the ideal gas for which solutions of the Noh problem [1] will exist. In the Noh problem the hydrodynamics equations are solved by reduction to ordinary differential equations written out in terms of similarity variables that can be constructed as invariant functions of a multiparameter group of point transformations. This group must be admitted by the hydrodynamics equations for the particular equation of state used. Equations of state such that the corresponding hydrodynamics equations admit a multiparameter group are called invariant equations of state. A method for developing invariant equations of state is developed in Sections 2 3 together with that of constructing similarity variables for the Noh problem. Explicit solutions of the Noh problem in planar, cylindrical, spherical geometries are found in Section 4 for (1) the ideal gas, (2) a Mie-Gruneisen, (3) the stiff gas equation of state. 2. HYDRODYNAMICS EQUATIONS IN TERMS OF THE ADIABATIC BULK MODULUS If entropy is regarded as a function of pressure density, the energy equation for isentropic flows is Dt~ Dp Dt + ds Dp_ Dt = 0, (1) where denotes the substantial time derivative. With the continuity equation, + pdivu=0, (2) *Consultant; University of Illinois, Department of Nuclear Engineering, 103 S. Goodwin, Urbana. IL 6I80I

the energy balance (1) can be written in the form. Dt (3) in which A{p,p) is the adiabatic bulk modulus defined by ds_ ~~ P ~d~s (4) Since the sonic speed c 2 (p,p) is given by ds_ (5) the adiabatic bulk modulus can be expressed in terms of the sonic speed by A(p,p) = pc 2 (p,p). (6) If the internal energy e is a function of the pressure density, the adiabatic bulk modulus internal energy satisfy the first order partial differential equation, Se _. _ (7) which can be derived as follows. thermodynamics, we have By combining the first second laws of (8) Exping the differentials yields " P+ T P = T ds + d P (9) Since this must be an identity in the differentials of pressure density, equating the coefficients of these differentials gives rf (10)

de (11) Substituting (10) (11) into (4) produces (7). Given the equation of state, = e{p,p). (12) the corresponding adiabatic bulk modulus can be evaluated with (7). Conversely, given the adiabatic bulk modulus, the corresponding equation of state can be determined by solving the characteristic equations of (7), namely, pde A{p,p) P P (13) If the equation of state is taken in the form in which the pressure is regarded as a function of the internal energy e density, that is = p(e,p), (14) then the pressure adiabatic bulk modulus satisfy the first order partial differential equation, pde (15) which can be derived as follows. An alternative form to (1) for the energy balance is p hpdivu = 0. F Dt y The substantial time derivative of (14) is (16) Dp _ De Dt + Dp_ Dt (17) From (16) it follows that de De Dt divu. (18) By substituting (18) the continuity equation (2) into (17), we obtain RE. Dt EHE. p de div u=0 (19)

Comparing (19) with (3) yields (15). Given the equation of state (14), the corresponding adiabatic bulk modulus can be computed from (15). Given the adiabatic bulk modulus, the equation of state (14) can also be found by solving the characteristic equations (13). Examples of the adiabatic bulk modulus include the following: (1) For the ideal gas equation of state, the adiabatic bulk modulus from (15) is (2) For the Mie-Gruneisen equation of state, in which F(p) is the Gruneisen coefficient, we have (3) For the stiff gas equation of state, we have p = {y-\)pe, (20) ) yp. (21) p = pet{p), (22) [ ^()j -. (23) () (). (24) A{p,p) = y p + a 2 p m. (25) A useful form of the Gruneisen coefficient F(p) is that given by Anisimov Kravchenko [2], namely, (jf( )^l/, (26) where (27) In terms of the adiabatic bulk modulus, the hydrodynamics equations are (1) the continuity equation, P- + pdivh = O, (28) (2) the equation of motion,

0" ' _. n P + grad/? = O, (29) (3) the energy balance, = 0. (30) 3. INVARIANCE PROPERTIES OF THE HYDRODYNAMICS EQUATIONS WITH AN ARBITRARY ADIABATIC BULK MODULUS In one-dimensional planar, cylindrical spherical geometries, the hydrodynamics equations (28)-(30) become ; 0, (31) p{u,+uu r ) + Pr = 0, (32) = 0, (33) where the subscripts t r denote partial derivatives with respect to time the space coordinate, respectively. In (31)-(33), for planar geometry N = 0, for cylindrical geometry N = l, for spherical geometry N = 2. The hydrodynamics equations (31)-(33) for both cylindrical spherical geometry are invariant under the four-parameter group with the Lie algebra of generators, Ul= d (34) i ' ^2=/ 'l : + f f ' ft i 2p i i, (36) du (35) UA=P4~ + PJT. (37) provided that the adiabatic bulk modulus in (33) is that of the ideal gas given in (21). In the case of planar geometry, the Lie algebra is six-dimensional with the four generators (34) - (37) together with the spatial translation,

u *=lt ' (38) the Galilean boost, U 6 =t^- + j-. (39) All transformations of the four-parameter group with the Lie algebra basis (34) - (37) for the ideal gas are generated by where e v i-1,2,3,4, +e 4 p^ + (e 4 2e,)pf. )f (40) are the four group parameters. To verify that the hydrodynamics equations (31) - (33) with the ideal gas adiabatic bulk modulus (21) admit the fourparameter group with generator (40), the prolongation of this generator to first order partial derivatives is evaluated found to be given by d i \ d d d +(e 4 -e 2 -e 3 )p + (e 4 - e 2 )p, OPr OP, + ( 2 ) p (41) By operating on the three hydrodynamics equation (31)-(33) for the ideal gas case with the prolonged group generator (41), it is found that the hydrodynamics equations are three invariant equations of the four parameter group of point transformations generated by (40). What condition must be satisfied by adiabatic bulk modulus A[p,p) in the energy balance (33) in order that the hydrodynamics equations (31)-(33) admit the four parameter group generated by (40)? As indicated above, (31)-(33) are invariant under (40) if the adiabatic bulk modulus is that of the ideal gas given in (21). However, are there other forms of the adiabatic bulk modulus such that the hydrodynamics equations (31)-(33) are also invariant under the four parameter group generated by (40)? For the case of an arbitrary adiabatic bulk modules, the energy equation (33) admits the group generated by (40) if the invariance condition, U (i) p t +up r +A(p,p)\u r + \ = 0, (42)

is satisfied when evaluated on (33). In (42) note the appearance of the generator U w of the first prolongation. Equation (42) is the Lie derivative of the energy balance (33) which reduces to a linear first order partial differential equation for the adiabatic bulk modulus, namely, ^ ^-ea = 0 (43) If the adiabatic bulk modulus is a solution of this partial differential equation, then the corresponding hydrodynamics equations (31)-(33) will be invariant under the four parameter group generated by (40). Also, if the adiabatic bulk modulus is a solution of (43), then similarity variables can be constructed by solving the characteristic equations of the first order partial differential equation, UF = 0, (44) formed with the group generator (40). These characteristic equations are dr _ dt _ du (<J 2 +e 3 )r e,+e 2 r ep e 4 p (e 4-2e 3 )p Solutions of these characteristic equations provide similarity variables in terms of which the hydrodynamics equations (31)-(33) can be reduced to ordinary differential equations when the adiabatic bulk modulus is a solution of (43). The corresponding equation of state for which the hydrodynamics equations (31)-(33) will have similarity solutions can be found by integrating (7) or (15). The method described above provides similarity variables to reduce the hydrodynamics equations (31)-(33) to ordinary differential equations with equations of state whose adiabatic bulk modulus is a solution of (43) for three classes of problems, namely, (1) the Noh problem, (2) the Guderley converging shock problem, (3) the blast wave diverging shock problem. In the following sections the Noh problem will be solved for various equations of state. 4. SOLUTIONS OF THE NOH PROBLEM FOR VARIOUS EQUATIONS OF STATE The hydrodynamics equations (31)-(33) are invariant under the four parameter group with generator (40) when the adiabatic bulk modulus A(p,p) in the energy balance (33) is that (1) for the ideal gas equation of state given in (21), (2) for the Mie-Gruneisen equation of state given in (23), (3) for the stiff gas equation of state given in (25). These results are proved as follows. Set e 4 = 2e, in the adiabatic bulk modulus invariance condition (43) to get U i (46)

The characteristic equations of (46), namely, p 0 A have the solutions, p = constant, (48) ^PP ' = constant. (49) P Hence, the general solution of (46) for the adiabatic bulk modulus is, (50) where \{/{p) is an arbitrary function of the density. The ideal gas equation of state adiabatic bulk modulus (21) is a special case of (50) with 7 (51) The Mie-Gruneisen equation of state adiabatic bulk modulus (23) follows from (50) by taking v(p) = r+~(pr) (52) in terms of the Gruneisen coefficient. If we replace p by p + p e in (37), (40), (41), (43), (45), (46), (47) (50), then the adiabatic bulk modulus for the stiff gas equation of state (25) is a special case of the modified (50), namely, obtained with y/(p) in (51) { ) { ) { ). (53)?.=ef (54) Accordingly, the hydrodynamics equations (31)-(33) can be reduced to a system of ordinary differential equations by introducing similarity variables obtained by integrating the characteristic equations (45). Similarity variables are invariant functions of the group generated by (40). When e 4 = 2e 3, the characteristic equations (45) become

dr _ dt _ du (e 2 + e,)r e l + e 2 t e 3 w 2e,p 0 In (55), set e, = 0, e 2 = 1 l + e,=a. (56) Then we have dr _dt _ </«ar~ t ~{a-\)u~2(a-l)p~~0 The solutions of the characteristic equations (57) are X = = constant, (58) 7 7T = constant, (59) X_ x) = constant, (60) t p= constant. (61) These invariant functions of the group generated by (40) comprise independent dependent variables in terms of which the hydrodynamics equations (31)-(33) can be reduced to ordinary differential equations. The invariant function A in (58) contains only the original independent variables is, therefore, taken as the independent variable for the reduction of the hydrodynamics equations (31)-(33) to ordinary differential equations. Let \ be the value of /L that corresponds to the position R s (t) of a shock. Then from (58) we have the shock speed, is given by K s [t) - A s t, {pi) D{t) = R s {t), (63) C D{t) = X s a r"" 1. (64)

The invariant functions (59). (60), (61) contain the original dependent variables of density, pressure, velocity are, therefore, taken as new dependent variables in terms of which the hydrodynamics equations (31)-(33) are reduced to ordinary differential equations. That is, (65) {), (66) {a %{X (67) where functions /(A), g(x) h(x) are determined by integrating the set of ordinary differential equations that come out of substituting (65)-(67) into the hydrodynamics equations (31)-(33). In view of the shock-speed result in (64), an alternative form of (65)-(67) that gives new nondimensional dependent variables is useful for diverging converging shock problems is (68) P = P~D 2 {t)g(x), (69) (){X). (70) For some equations of state, for example, that of the stiff gas, the pressure on the left side of (69) is replaced with p + p e, as in (53). Similarity variables for the Noh problem are special cases (65)-(67) with a = 1. The shock speed for the Noh problem is from (64) a constant, CD = X S, (71) the new independent variable is given by (58) with a = 1, the new dependent variables can be taken as, (72) {, (73) (X), (74) 10

from (65)-(67) with a = 1. 4.1 SOLUTION OF THE NOH PROBLEM FOR THE IDEAL GAS EQUATION OF STATE The hydrodynamics equations (31)-(33) with the adiabatic bulk modulus (21) for the ideal gas equation of state are O, (75) p(u,+uu r ) + p r = 0, (76) p,+up r - -(p,+up r ) = 0. (77) By substituting the similarity variables (58) with a = 1 (72)-(74) into the hydrodynamics equations (75)-(77), we find the following set of ordinary differential equations: df _ A, f dx < ~ A ' 7 8 > dg dx A ' < 79 > dh dx _A 3 A ' < 80) where the definitions (82) 11

(84) have been used. In the Noh problem, the region behind the shock lies in the domain 0 < r < R s, the region ahead of the shock lies in the domain R s < r < oo, solutions of (78)-(80) are obtained subject to the Rankine-Hugoniot relations, a general form of which are ( Ul -D) Pl =(u o -D)p o = m. (85) /?, + /JZM, = p 0 + mu 0, (86) e i+ L + ±(u l -Df=e o+^ + ±(u o -Df. (87) Pi z Po jl Here, quantities ahead of the shock are denoted with the subscript, 0, those behind the shock, with the subscript, 1. In the case of the Noh problem it is assumed that P l >»Po. (88) Also, for the Noh problem the Rankine-Hugoniot relations (85)-(87) simplify to 1 0 (89) A Po «,=0, (90) (9D (K (92) ^ ^. (93) When the speed of the incoming material u 0 is specified, the simplified Rankine-Hugoniot relations (91)-(93) are three questions from which the shock speed D, the density p, behind the shock, the pressure p, behind the shock are determined. The density p 0 12

just ahead of the shock in (91)-(93) is found by integrating the reduced hydrodynamics equations (78)-(80). In the region ahead of the shock the assumption (88) is equivalent to setting g = 0 in (78)-(80). Since all material ahead of the shock moves with speed u 0 in the Noh problem, /i(/l) = u 0, equations (79) (80) are satisfied identically, the density distribution ahead of the shock is determined by integrating (78), which becomes Integrating from the shock position \ out to infinity yields 4L=Nu 0 Cf. (94) cla, hm f h, X{l-u 0 C) (95, or V A s J (96) Eliminating X s from (96) with (71), noting that fm = Po (97) fh = P-. (98) we obtain Po = Po \ zz I» (99) where p^ is the normal density of the material. Also, by integrating (94) the density distribution ahead of the shock is found to be given by p{r,t) = pi' ^-\ =/(A) (100) for R s {t)^r<, where R s {t) = td. (101) When the ideal gas equation of state, (102) 13

is substituted into the Noh problem form of the Rankine-Hugoniot relations (91)-(93), the energy balance (93) becomes 7~ l Pi z (103) From (91) an (92) we have combining (103) (104) produces the shock speed ^ = -«<> >. (104) P. D = --ujy-l), (105) 2 in which u 0 < 0. The compression ahead of the shock is found with (99) (105) to be Po=pJ^j] (106) Substituting (105) (106) into (91) gives the compression behind the shock, namely, (107) Also, by combining (105) (106) with (92), we obtain the pressure behind the shock in the form, A " 2(7-1)" " The results obtained in (105), (107), (108) for the case of an ideal gas equation of state can be generalized to other equations of state whose adiabatic bulk modulus takes the form found in (50) or (53) because the corresponding hydrodynamics equations are invariant under the group of point transformations generated by (40). 4.2 SOLUTION OF THE NOH PROBLEM FOR A MIE-GRUNEISEN EQUATION OF STATE It has been shown above that the hydrodynamics equations (31)-(33) are invariant in the case of the Mie-Gruneisen equation of state, (), (109) 14

in which the Gruneisen coefficient F(p) is that of (26). Hence, similarity variables of the type given in (72)-(74) (58) with a = 1 exist for this equation of state. Let F, denote the value of the Gruneisen coefficient (26) evaluated at the compression behind the shock in the Noh problem, that is, r,=r( Pl /pj. Then the energy Rankine-Hugoniot relation (93) becomes (no) ( u OPI_"OK-2P) (11I) Substituting (104) into (111) solving out for the shock speed yields With (112) the density behind the shock (91) becomes r+2 Pi=-jr-Po. (H3) the density ahead of the shock (99) reduces to (114) Combining (113) (114) produces P.=pJwhich with (26) is a transcendental equation for the compression p, / p m behind the shock. The shock speed is obtained by substituting the solution of (115) into (112), the pressure behind the shock comes out of substituting (112) (114) into (92) to obtain The Gruneisen coefficient that corresponds to the ideal gas equation of state is r,=7-l (117) If (117) is substituted into (112), (115) (116), the results for the Mie-Gruneisen equation of state for the shock speed, compression behind the shock, pressure behind 15

the shock reduce to those found in (105), (108), (108) for the ideal gas equation of state. 4.3 SOLUTION OF THE NOH PROBLEM FOR THE STIFF GAS EQUATION OF STATE As demonstrated above, similarity solutions of the Noh problem exist for the stiff gas equation of state, For this case the energy Rankine-Hugoniot relation (93) reduces to (118) EL r-i A (119) The shock speed is determined in terms of the compression behind the shock by combining (104) (119). The result is = -u r «o V Pi (120) A transcendental equation for the compression behind the shock that comes out of combining (91) (99), (120) is 2a 2 N+l Pi i 2a 2 7-1 + "o P. (121) The pressure behind the shock is found with (92), (99), (120) to be 2 2 2a 2 f "o 2 I 7 f p Yl P.J Y 1 J N+l N (122) In the limit a = 0, the results in (120), (121), (122) for the shock speed, the compression behind the shock, the pressure behind die shock calculated with the stiff gas equation of state reduce to the ideal gas results given in (105), (107) (108). 16
