Overview of spatial reconstruction methods used in this work.

ID Theoretical order Practical order Number of ghost cells Description
LIN 2 2.0 2 Piecewise linear, no limiter
LIN+VL 2 2.0 2 Piecewise linear, van Leer limiter
PAR 3 3.0 2 Piecewise parabolic, no limiter
PPM84 4 2.3, 1.6 3 PPM method of Colella & Woodward (1984)
PPM08 6 6.0 4 PPM method of Colella & Sekora (2008)
PSH 7 7.0 4 Hybrid piecewise sextic with no limiter for dynamic variables and PPM08 for passive scalars

Notes. ID: identifier; Theoretical order: formal order of accuracy for smooth and monotonic solutions in 1D; Practical order: asymptotic order obtained in the 1D experiments reported in Appendix B (smooth but nonmonotonic solutions). In the case of PPM84, the higher order of accuracy corresponds to linear advection and the lower one to the propagation of a sound wave using the LHLLC flux function, see Appendix B for details.
