[docs]def unsplit_fluxes(my_data, rp, dt, scalar_name): r""" Construct the fluxes through the interfaces for the linear advection equation: .. math:: a_t + u a_x + v a_y = 0 We use a second-order (piecewise linear) unsplit Godunov method (following Colella 1990). In the pure advection case, there is no Riemann problem we need to solve -- we just simply do upwinding. So there is only one 'state' at each interface, and the zone the information comes from depends on the sign of the velocity. Our convection is that the fluxes are going to be defined on the left edge of the computational zones:: | | | | | | | | -+------+------+------+------+------+------+-- | i-1 | i | i+1 | a_l,i a_r,i a_l,i+1 a_r,i and a_l,i+1 are computed using the information in zone i,j.
