Abstract A novel wavelet-based method for the simulation of reacting flows on adaptive meshes is presented. The method is based on a subtraction algorithm, wherein the wavelet coefficients are calculated from the low resolution up (as opposed to the standard top-down approach). The advantage of this new method is that it allows the calculation of wavelet coefficients on sparse grids, and thus lends itself more readily to adaptive computational meshes than does the traditional wavelet algorithm. The approach is used to simulate a one-dimensional laminar pre-mixed flame with different Lewis numbers. The computational grid is adapted More >
