Adaptive grid methods for reactive flows. (English) Zbl 0937.76041

Fey, Michael (ed.) et al., Hyperbolic problems: Theory, numerics, applications. Proceedings of the 7th international conference, Zürich, Switzerland, February 1998. Vol. I. Basel: Birkhäuser. ISNM, Int. Ser. Numer. Math. 129, 445-454 (1999).
The paper deals with different adaptation concepts presently applied to simulations of reactive flows. The governing equations of inviscid, reactive flows are solved by finite volume methods in combination with upwind schemes. Adaptive grid redistribution and hierarchical grid refinement methods are employed on structured grids. Hierarchical grid refinement concepts, like adaptive mesh refinement and directional mesh refinement have shown to be more flexible and efficient for multidimensional flows than grid redistribution.
