Chemically reactive flow over a surfaceis a basic building block which is centralto many energy-related applications

Illustrative benchmark to demonstrate the capabilityto integrate scales of several orders of magnitude

Approach: KMC–LBM couplingthrough Compound Wavelet Matrix

Construct a CWM from LBM and KMC Use CWM for coupling of mesoscopic and

microscopic simulations in time and space Use a Multiple Time Stepping (MTS) algorithm

for higher order accuracy in time Use fractal projection to map the surface

topographical information to constructthe KMC in one less dimension

Increasing spatial or temporal scales

Homogenization at the level corresponding

to LBM, feedingfrom KMC to LBM

CWM methodology in work:Transferring information from KMC to LBM

Micro-informationKMC

Homogenized properties at next scale

Wavelettransformation

Objective:Develop algorithmsto construct projection operators and time integration methods to connect the microscale (e.g., KMC) and the mesoscale (e.g., LBM)

The interactions between various physical processesat different scales are encapsulated by CWM and can be employed in control and design of reacting surfacesTime separation between methods and scalessimplifies the problem

The method recovers the mean field behaviorin the macroscopic limit

Recent results*

1D reaction/diffusion simulation performedat two different length and time scales Fine (KMC and diffusion equation using finite difference

at fine scale) Coarse (analytical species solution and diffusion equation

using finite difference at coarse scale)

Reconstructed the fine simulation results to reasonable accuracy using CWM at fraction of cost

Method allows for bi-directional transfer of information, i.e., upscaling and downscaling
