Simulations of 3D/4D precipitation processes in a turbulent flow field
2009, John, Volker, Roland, Michael
Precipitation processes are modeled by population balance systems. A very expensive part of the simulation of population balance systems is the solution of the equation for the particle size distribution (PSD) since this equation is defined in a higher dimensional domain than the other equations in the system. This paper studies different approaches for the solution of this equation: two finite difference upwind schemes and a linear finite element flux--corrected transport method. It is shown that the different schemes lead to qualitatively different solutions for an output of interest.
