In this study, we have developed a well-balanced second-order central-upwind scheme forsystems of balance laws, in particular, the models of isothermal gas dynamics with source and traffic flow with relaxation to equilibrium velocities. The new scheme is based on modifications in the reconstruction and evolution steps of a Godunov-type central-upwind method. The first step of this modification is to introduce an equilibrium variable obtained from incorporating the source term into the flux. By reconstructing equilibrium variables and using them in the well-balanced evolution process, we have illustrated that the proposed scheme being well balanced, namely, it preserves steady states of the system.
