Energy Referencing in LANL HE-EOS Codes
Jeffery A. Leiding, USDOE National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), Joshua D. Coe · 2017
Here, We briefly describe the choice of energy referencing in LANL's HE-EOS codes, HEOS and MAGPIE. Understanding this is essential to comparing energies produced by different EOS codes, as well as to the correct calculation of shock Hugoniots of HEs and other materials. In all equations after (3) throughout this report, all energies, enthalpies and volumes are assumed to be molar quantities.
