    Notes: In this note we show that the numerical solution of the advection-diffusion equation can be improved by considering the asymptotic behaviour of its analytical solution. This is accomplished by including a correction term based on the numerical differentiation of the asymptotic (Pe » 1, Pe being the Peclet number) solution. This correction forces the usual oscillations associated with centred schemes to disappear.

    Notes: A numerical method based on the boundary-fitted finite difference method (BFDM) is presented in this paper. The boundaries are external (the boundary of the physical domain) and internal (which corresponds to the fracture network). The difference between this approach and the usual one lies in the inclusion of discrete fractures in the volume that represents the porous medium. The numerical model has been used in the prediction of the flow pattern in several internationally recognized verification cases and applied to the solution of hypothetical problems of interest to us in the field of nuclear waste repository modelling. The results obtained show that the numerical approach considered gives accurate and reliable predictions of the hydrodynamics of fractured-porous media, thus justifying its use for the above-mentioned studies.

    Notes: A description is given of the effects of the discretization of the domain of integration on the accuracy of the results obtained with boundary-fitted finite differences. Three-dimensional unsteady heat conduction problems and two dimensional Navier-Stokes equations are considered. Comparisons with analytic solutions are given for all cases. It is shown that grid shapes influence the accuracy of the results and quantitative error evaluations are provided for some interesting cases.

    Notes: This paper presents a generalization of a computational method for the prediction of solute dispersion in fractured porous media. This method is specially useful for the prediction of subsurface flows in crystalline rocks. The model now includes a linear kinetics mechanism to represent the effects of sorption of radionuclides in the rock matrix. The method is improved in its accuracy and provides results useful for the assessment of radionuclide migration in high-level, radioactive waste repositories. Results including verification (analytical) and physical test simulations are given. These results provide a partial validation of the numerical model.

    Notes: It is shown that codes employing boundary-fitted grids (BFG) in heat conduction problems involving heat sources must be implemented in strictly numerically conservative form if accurate results are to be obtained. It is demonstrated that, for one-dimensional problems, non-conservative form imply errors originated in grid non-uniformity that cause a spurious increase in the heat source. This in turn leads to significant errors in the computed soution. Therefore the implementation of BFG codes using non-conservative forms should be avoided. An application to an unsteady, axisymmetric benchmark problem involving a spherical, time-decaying heat source is presented.
