Abstract
We describe a coupled Lagrangian-Eulerian numerical scheme for modeling reacting flow in two dimensions. The scheme uses the Lagrangian vortex method for solving the Navier-Stokes equations, and an Eulerian finite difference implementation on a multi-layered adaptive mesh for the scalar conservation equations. Coupling terms involving baroclinic and diffusional circulation source terms as well as expansion sources for dilatation resulting from heat release are implemented as necessary. A boundary element method is used for the potential flow solution. A fast multipole method is used for all velocity field evaluations. The numerical construction is presented along with representative buoyant reacting jet flow results.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
