The methodology will be illustrated for two layer shallow water equations with source terms modelling the bottom topography and Coriolis forces. The FVEG methods couple a finite volume formulation with approximate evolution operators. The latter are constructed using the bicharacteristics of multidimensional hyperbolic systems, such that all of the infinitely many directions of wave propagation are taken into account explicitly. We will derive a suitable path in the phase space that is based on the evolution operator and derive the corresponding path-consistent FVEG scheme. The path-consistent FVEG scheme is well-balanced for the stationary steady states as well as for the steady jets in the rotational frame. © 2011 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.enMathematicsConference Paper10.1007/978-3-642-17770-5_10Conference Paper
