Abstract: In this paper, the reflection phenomenon of a vapor shock front (both sides of the front are in the vapor phase) in a van der Waals fluid is considered. Both the 1-dimensional case and the multidimensional case are investigated. The authors find that under certain conditions, the reflected wave can be a single shock, or a single subsonic phase boundary, or one weak shock together with one subsonic phase boundary, which depends on the strength of the incident shock. This is different from the known result for the reflection of shock fronts in a gas dynamical system due to Chen in 1989.
