Abstract: In this research work we focus on the numerical simulation of the dynamics and thermodynamics of relativistic flows described in terms of the Euler equations of special relativity for fluids whose intrinsic properties are described by means of an equation of state (EOS) for a relativistic perfect gas due to Synge, ([Syn57, FK96]).
