They depend on the coefficients $\eta,\zeta,\sigma,\chi_T$ which

such a variable transformation should not already be incorporated in
the zero-derivative hydro equations and, therefore, in the \constoprim{} routine?}
The above procedure was first proposed in \cite{pandya2022conservative} where they
observed that the primitive recovery in the BDNK formulation can be done analytically,
however, it suffers from the problem that the recovery becomes indeterminant in the
case of vanishing physical viscosities. To this end, they recovered the time derivatives
of the primitives of the zero-derivative hydro equations ($\pdvt \rho_0, \pdvt \epsilon, \pdvt v_i$)
in the above way, because it ensures that in the limit of vanishing viscosity the equations
are consistent.
