Description

It is shown that the boost-invariant and cylindrically asymmetric hydrodynamic equations for baryon-free matter may be reduced to only two coupled partial differential equations. In the case where the system exhibits the crossover phase transition, the standard numerical methods may be applied to solve these equations and the proposed scheme allows for a very convenient analysis of the cylindrically asymmetric hydrodynamic expansion
