A number of Riemann solvers are proposed for the solution of the Riemann problem in a compressible liquid. Both the Tait and Tammann equations of state are used to describe the liquid. Along with exact Riemann solvers, a detailed description of a primitive variable Riemann solver, a two-shock Riemann solver, a two-rarefaction Riemann solver and an extension to the HLL Riemann solver, namely the HLLC Riemann solver, are presented. It is shown how these Riemann solvers may be implemented into Godunov-type numerical methods. The appropriateness of each of the Riemann solvers for a number of flow situations is demonstrated by applying Godunov's method to some revealing shock tube test problems. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
