The Local Singular Boundary Method for Solution of Two-Dimensional Advection–Diffusion Equation

Abstract

This work focuses on the derivation of the local variant of the singular boundary method (SBM) for solving the advection-diffusion equation of tracer transport. Localization is based on the combination of SBM and finite collocation. Unlike the global variant, local SBM leads to a sparse matrix of the resulting system of equations, making it much more efficient to solve large-scale tasks. It also allows solving velocity vector variable tasks, which is a problem with global SBM. This paper compares the results on several examples for the steady and unsteady variant of the advection-diffusion equation and also examines the dependence of the accuracy of the solution on the density of the nodal grid and the size of the subdomain.
