We run a suite of hydrodynamics simulations of tidal disruption events (TDEs) of a white dwarf (WD) by a black hole (BH) with a wide range of WD/BH masses and orbital parameters. We implement nuclear reactions to study nucleosynthesis and its dynamical effect through release of nuclear energy. The released nuclear energy effectively increases the fraction of unbound ejecta. This effect is weaker for a heavy WD with 1.2 $\mathrm{M}_{\odot}$, because the specific orbital energy distribution of the debris is predominantly determined by the tidal force, rather than by the explosive reactions. The elemental yield of a TDE depends critically on the initial composition of a WD, while the BH mass and the orbital parameters also affect the total amount of synthesized elements. Tanikawa et al. (2017) find that simulations of WD-BH TDEs with low resolution suffer from spurious heating and inaccurate nuclear reaction results. In order to examine the validity of our calculations, we compare the amounts of the synthesized elements with the upper limits of them derived in a way where we can avoid uncertainties due to low resolution. The results are largely consistent, and thus support our findings. We find particular TDEs where early self-intersection of a WD occurs during the first pericentre passage, promoting formation of an accretion disc. We expect that relativistic jets and/or winds would form in these cases because accretion rates would be super-Eddington. The WD-BH TDEs result in a variety of events depending on the WD/BH mass and pericentre radius of the orbit.
