MultiDimensional Combustion Simulation.

Abstract

The movement of the gas-solid interface in the combustion of a solid can be reduced to a nonlinear first order hyperbolic system of partial differential equations for which the system of parabolic reaction diffusion equations act as a nonlinear source term. Some finite difference schemes are under study for implementation. Galerkin schemes will be deferred until a later date due to the complicated structure of the system. A Galerkin procedure for the one-dimensional problem of the combustion of a solid is currently under study and a computer program is being written for the study. This section consists of short statements by our faculty and graduate students on their usage of the VAX.
