An additional seventh equation, describing the total mixture energy, is added to the model to guarantee the correct treatment of shocks in the single phase limit. Some salient features of the model are that it is hyperbolic with only three wave propagation speeds and the volume fraction remains positive. The proposed numerical scheme is based on the direct splitting of macroscopic flux functions of the system of equations. The second order accuracy of the scheme is achieved by using MUSCL-type initial reconstruction and Runge-Kutta time stepping method.
