Abstract
This paper develops a fourth order entropy stable scheme to approximate the entropy solution of one-dimensional hyperbolic conservation laws. The scheme is constructed by employing a high order entropy conservative flux of order four in conjunction with a suitable numerical diffusion operator that based on a fourth order non-oscillatory reconstruction which satisfies the sign property. The constructed scheme possesses two features: (1) it achieves fourth order accuracy in the smooth area while keeping high resolution with sharp discontinuity transitions in the nonsmooth area; (2) it is entropy stable. Some typical numerical experiments are performed to illustrate the capability of the new entropy stable scheme.
