These CMEs interact with each other while they are propagating in interplanetary space and finally form a Complex Ejecta. A Hartens total variation diminishing (TVD) scheme is applied to solve MHD equations numerically, starting from an ambient solar wind equilibrium, with appropriate dimensionless gravity parameter , plasma beta , and gas polytropic index . The equilibrium is consistent in solar wind speed , proton number density, and the ratio of proton thermal pressure to magnetic pressure with the observation of ACE spacecraft at Lagrange point (L1). Merely velocity pulse is introduced in the numerical computation, whose amplitude and duration are determined by observation data of Lasco/C2, GOES, LEAR combined with CMEs Cone Model proposed by Michalek et al.. The results show that the differences of two shock arrival times (SATs) between the numerical calculation and ACE observation are 3 and 4 hours respectively. It implies that the proposed numerical model can estimate SAT and rough shock intensity formed by successive CMEs evolving in interplanetary space. Therefore the results sugges
