    Notes: In simulations of propagating blast waves the effects of artificial reflections at open boundaries can seriously degrade the accuracy of the computations. In this paper, a boundary condition based on a local approximation by a plane traveling wave is presented. The method yields small artificial reflections at open boundaries. The derivation and the theory behind these so-called plane-wave boundary conditions are presented. The method is conceptually simple and is easy to implement in two and three dimensions. These non-reflecting boundary conditions are employed in the three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solver FLACS, capable of simulating gas explosions and blast-wave propagation in complex geometries. Several examples involving propagating waves in one and two dimensions, shock tube and an example of a simulation of a propagating blast wave generated by an explosion in a compressor module are shown. The numerical simulations show that artificial reflections due to the boundary conditions employed are negligible. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: This paper shows that the well-known variational acceleration method described by Wachspress (E. Wachspress, Iterative Solution of Elliptic Systems and Applications to the Neutron Diffusion Equations of Reactor Physics, Prentice-Hall, Englewood Cliffs, NJ, 1966) and later generalized to multilevels (known as the additive correction multigrid method (B.R Huthchinson and G.D. Raithby, Numer. Heat Transf., 9, 511-537 (1986))) is similar to the FAC method of McCormick and Thomas (S.F McCormick and J.W. Thomas, Math. Comput., 46, 439-456 (1986)) and related multilevel methods. The performance of the method is demonstrated for some simple model problems using local refinement and suggestions for improving the performance of the method are given. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: This paper discusses implementation strategies for second-order finite difference discretizations of advection. Purely explicit and implicit methods both have disadvantages, and we consider semi-implicit schemes in which the flux is split into a primary implicit part and a secondary explicit correction. One-dimensional scalar advection is used as a model problem to analyse the leading order error terms and the stability of the schemes. Some of the splittings turn out to be unconditionally stable, but accuracy or monotonicity may deteriorate for large time steps. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Two different schemes for constructing coarse-grid operators are implemented in a linear multigrid code. In the first scheme, the construction of the coarse-grid operators is done using a variational approach. Certain conservation properties of the fine-grid matrices are shown to be preserved on the coarser grids by the variational construction. In the second scheme, the diffusion coefficients for the coarse grids are calculated by a simple restriction of the coefficient from the fine grid, using a flux conservation principle. The multigrid codes are then applied to solve the linear equations from an IMPES formulation of a two-phase porous-media flow model. A standard elliptic model problem with jump discontinuous coefficients is also solved using the two multigrid schemes. In simple cases of particular elliptic equations these two schemes are identical. However, in more general cases, such as in reservoir problems, these schemes differ. It is shown that multigrid efficiency typical of the constant coefficient cases is obtained for these problems involving discontinuous coefficients. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
