Hp-Adaptive spectral element solver for reactor modeling

摘要: The study, analysis and optimization of chemical reactors has shown a significant increase in complexity the models used during last decades. This increased computational cost demanding development efficient solution techniques. paper discusses implementation an hp-adaptive refinement technique applied to least-squares spectral element formulation as mathematical framework for reactor modeling. is based on estimate local Sobolev regularity index underlying by monitoring decay rate its Legendre expansion coefficients. performance method demonstrated numerically using analytical test case.
