The study of advection–diffusion equation has relatively became an active research topic in the field of uncertainty quantification (UQ) due to its numerous real life applications. In this paper, Hermite polynomial chaos is united with summation-by-parts (SBP) – simultaneous approximation terms (SATs) technique to solve the advection–diffusion equations with random Dirichlet boundary conditions (BCs). Polynomial chaos expansion (PCE) with Hermite basis is employed to separate the randomness, then SBP operators are used to approximate the differential operators and SATs are used to enforce BCs by ensuring the stability. For each chaos coefficient, time integration is performed using Runge–Kutta method of fourth order (RK4). Statistical moments namely mean and variance are computed using polynomial chaos coefficients without any extra computational effort. The method is applied on three test problems for validation. The first two test problems are stochastic advection equations on [Formula: see text] without any boundary and third problem is stochastic advection–diffusion equation on [0,2] with Dirichlet BCs. In case of third problem, we have obtained a range of permissible parameters for a stable numerical solution.

For constant and oscillating boundary conditions, the 1-D advection-diffusion equation with constant coefficients, which describes a contaminant flow, is solved by the explicit finite difference method in a semi-infinite medium. It is shown how far the periodicity of the oscillating boundary carries on until diminishing to below appreciable levels a specified distance away, which depends on the oscillation characteristics of the source. Results are tested against an analytical solution reported for a special case. The explicit finite difference method is shown to be effective for solving the advection-diffusion equation with constant coefficients in semi-infinite media with constant and oscillating boundary conditions.

AbstractThe two-dimensional advection-diffusion equation with variable coefficients is solved by the explicit finitedifference method for the transport of solutes through a homogenous two-dimensional domain that is finite and porous. Retardation by adsorption, periodic seepage velocity, and a dispersion coefficient proportional to this velocity are permitted. The transport is from a pulse-type point source (that ceases after a period of activity). Included are the firstorder decay and zero-order production parameters proportional to the seepage velocity, and periodic boundary conditions at the origin and at the end of the domain. Results agree well with analytical solutions that were reported in the literature for special cases. It is shown that the solute concentration profile is influenced strongly by periodic velocity fluctuations. Solutions for a variety of combinations of unsteadiness of the coefficients in the advection-diffusion equation are obtainable as particular cases of the one demonstrated here. This further attests to the effectiveness of the explicit finite difference method for solving two-dimensional advection-diffusion equation with variable coefficients in finite media, which is especially important when arbitrary initial and boundary conditions are required.

Several classical fractional step schemes are proposed for the spectral approximation of advection-diffusion equation in two-dimensional geometries. Suitable boundary conditions are studied in order to preserve the accuracy of the schemes at each step. An example is given for the application of the fractional step schemes to solve problems with large Péclet number.

AbstractIn this paper, we first establish a high-order numerical algorithm for α-th (0 < α < 1) order Caputo derivative of a given function f(t), where the convergence rate is (4 − α)-th order. Then by using this new formula, an improved difference scheme with high order accuracy in time to solve Caputo-type fractional advection-diffusion equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions is constructed. Finally, numerical examples are carried out to confirm the efficiency of the constructed algorithm.
