Projective submodel of the Ovsyannikov vortex

A submodel of the Ovsyannikov vortex with projective symmetry is studied. Integration of the factor system of the submodel reduces to solving a first-order differential equation which is not solved with respect to the derivative. The properties of the solutions of this equation are studied. It is shown that the submodel describes gas ow with a nonstationary source and a nonstationary sink. The problem of the motion of a gas volume between pistons of cylindrical shapes is studied, and its solution with an invariant shock wave is obtained. © 2005 Springer Science + Business Media, Inc.
