Description

This paper and the subsequent EBTEL-3 code provide a modification of the EBTEL model to include a more careful treatment of the velocities by including the kinetic energy terms in the derivation of the EBTEL equations. We should rederive the EBTEL equations again, starting with the two-fluid hydrodynamic equations and applying the methodology of the aforementioned paper such that our model can include two-fluid effects, area expansion, and a more proper treatment of the velocities.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Review the referenced paper and EBTEL 3 code. Start by understanding the two fluid hydrodynamic equations and the methodology used in the paper to include kinetic energy terms. Apply this to rederive the EBTEL equations, incorporating two fluid effects, area expansion, and proper velocity treatment.
