New Approach for Diffusion Diffusion Equation Hyperbolic Heat Equations Advection scheme for diffusion JCP 2007 vol.227, pp Also equivalent at a steady state: Stiffness is NOT an issue for steady computation. The system can stay strongly hyperbolic toward a steady state. Equivalent for any Tr

Diffusion System Time step is O(h) for Tr = O(1). Eigenvalues are real: Waves travelling to the left and right at the same finite speed. E.g., Upwind scheme for diffusion: CFL condition:

Advection-Diffusion System Tr is derived by requiring: Tr = Lr / eigenvalue: Lr is derived by optimizing the condition number of the system: Eigenvalues: The FOS advection-diffusion system is completely defined, in the differential level with Tr = (1).

O(h) Time Step Time step restriction for FOS-based schemes(CFL Condition): O(h) Time Step for all Reynolds numbers. Time step restriction for a common scheme:

O(h) Time Step and Iterations Number of time steps to reach a steady state: > Iterative solver with O(N) convergence. Jacobi iteration is as fast as Krylov-subspace methods. Two Dimensions: Three Dimensions: O(h) time step also for two and three dimensions.

Whatever the discretization 1.One Scheme for Advection-Diffusion System: Hyperbolic scheme for the whole advection-diffusion system. 2.Uniform Accuracy for ALL Reynolds Numbers: No need to combine two different schemes (advection and diffusion). 3.O(h) Time Step for ALL Reynolds Numbers Rapid convergence to a steady state by explicit schemes. 4.Accurate Solution Gradient (Diffusive Fluxes): Same order of accuracy as the main variables. Boundary conditions made simple (Neumann -> Dirichlet). 5.Various Other Techniques Available: Techniques for advection apply directly to advection-diffusion.

Advection-Diffusion Scheme Upwind Residual-Distribution Scheme: These schemes gives an identical 3-point finite-difference formula, and 2 nd -order accurate at a steady state. Upwind Finite-Volume Scheme:

2D Finite-Difference Scheme Simply apply the 1D scheme in each dimension. Dimension by dimension decomposition: 2D Advection-Diffusion System:

2D Fast Laplace Solver In the diffusion limit, the 2D FD scheme reduces to Jacobi iteration scheme with convergence

Upwind Scheme for Triangular Grid Just make sure that accuracy is obtained at a steady state. Upwind Residual-Distribution Scheme: Upwind Finite-Volume Scheme: Not implemented in this work. But it is straightforward to apply any discretization scheme to the 2D system. LDA scheme
