"... In PAGE 6: ... We have compared the number of nonzeros obtained by the static approach and the number of nonzeros obtained by SuperLU for these matrices. The results in Table2 show that the over-estimation usually leads to about 30 ? 50% more nonzeros, which is acceptable. The extra nonzeros do imply additional computational cost.... ..."

Further details concerning the equations of hydrody- namics can be found e.... In PAGE 2: ....2. Radiative transfer Time-dependent radiative transfer is considered in the grey approximation by solving the rst two frequency- integrated moment equations of the radiation eld rep- resenting energy conservation (radiation energy equation, Eq. 5 in Table1 ) and momentum conservation (radiation momentum equation, Eq. 6 in Table 1)....

As independent variables we use the zeroth moment of the radiation eld J and the rst moment of the radiation eld H, which are proportional to the radiative energy density and the radiative ux, respectively (e....

The basic equation (Eq. 8 in Table1 ) of the Kuh- fu model is a conservation law for the turbulent kinetic energy density !, which serves as the independent variable of the turbulent eld. The essential term is the turbulent driving through buoyancy forces (S !).... In PAGE 3: ... The basic quantity entering S ! is the entropy gradient @s=@r which is related to the Schwarzschild criterion by Eq. 12 ( Table1 ). Note that S ! can be evaluated even if the Schwarzschild crite- rion indicates convective stability.... In PAGE 4: ...6. The model equations In Table1 the complete set of model equations for gas dynamics, radiative transfer and turbulent convection in di erential form are compiled. With regard to the numer- ical method of solution using a conservative volume dis- cretization on an adaptive mesh (cf.... In PAGE 4: ... The corresponding total internal energy equation (Eq. 4 in Table1 ) can be derived by adding the respective energy equations of gas, radiation and convection (Eqns. 4,5 and 8 in Table 1).... In PAGE 4: ... Numerically speaking the initial model has to lie within the convergence radius of the implicit solution scheme. Consequently we use the hydrostatic and local limit of the nonlinear equations given in Table1 to compute the structure of the initial model. This limit is obtained by omitting all time derivatives, setting the gas velocity iden- tically to zero (u 0), and neglecting turbulent pressure and overshooting.... In PAGE 10: ...urb. energy eq.
