Abstract: A hydrodynamic model of the physics of semiconductors is studied numerically. It is shown that the solution of the problem of an $(n^+-n-n^+)$ ballistic diode has a shock wave. This problem is solved using an iterative method. An economical conservative semi-implicit difference scheme is developed for search of a numerical solution.
