Abstract In this paper we consider a unipolar degenerate drift-diffusion system where the relation between the concentration of the charged species $c$ and the chemical potential $h$ is $h(c)=\log \frac{c}{1-c}$. We design four different finite volume schemes based on four different formulations of the fluxes. We provide a stability analysis and existence results for the four schemes. The convergence proof with respect to the discretization parameters is established for two of them. Numerical experiments illustrate the behaviour of the different schemes.

The Stability

Abstract Finite-volume schemes developed in the meteorological community that permit long time steps are considered. These include Eulerian flux-form schemes as well as fully two-dimensional and cascade cell-integrated semi-Lagrangian (CISL) schemes. A one- and two-dimensional Von Neumann stability analysis of these finite-volume advection schemes is given. Contrary to previous analysis, no simplifications in terms of reducing the formal order of the schemes, which makes the analysis mathematically less complex, have been applied. An interscheme comparison of both dissipation and dispersion properties is given. The main finding is that the dissipation and dispersion properties of Eulerian flux-form schemes are sensitive to the choice of inner and outer operators applied in the scheme that can lead to increased numerical damping for large Courant numbers. This spurious dependence on the integer value of the Courant number disappears if the inner and outer operators are identical, in which case, under the assumptions used in the stability analysis, the Eulerian flux-form scheme becomes identical to the cascade scheme. To explain these properties a conceptual interpretation of the flux-based Eulerian schemes is provided. Of the two CISL schemes, the cascade scheme has superior stability properties.

The Stability

<p>GungHo is the mixed finite-element dynamical core under development by the Met Office. A key component of the dynamical core is the transport scheme, which advects density, temperature, moisture, and the winds, throughout the atmosphere. Transport in GungHo is performed by finite-volume methods, to ensure conservation of certain quantaties. There are a range of different finite-volume schemes being considered for transport, including the Runge-Kutta/method-of-lines and COSMIC/Lin-Rood schemes. Additional horizontal/vertical splitting approaches are also under consideration, to improve the stability aspects of the model. Here we discuss these transport options and present results from the GungHo framework, featuring both prescribed velocity advection tests and full dry dynamical core tests. </p>

In this work we present some moment preserving finite volume schemes (FVS) for solving population balance equations. We are considering unified numerical methods to simultaneous aggregation, breakage, growth and source terms, e.g. for nucleation. The criteria for the preservation of different moments are given. The property of conservation is a special case of preservation. First we present a FVS which shows the preservation with respect to one-moment depending upon the processes under consideration. In case of the aggregation and breakage it satisfies first-moment preservation whereas for the growth and nucleation we observe zeroth-moment preservation. This is due to the well-known property of conservativity of FVS. However, coupling of all the processes shows no preservation for any moments. To overcome this issue, we reformulate the cell average technique into a conservative formulation which is coupled together with a modified upwind scheme to give moment preservation with respect to the first two-moments for all four processes under consideration. This allows for easy coupling of these processes. The preservation is proven mathematically and verified numerically. The numerical results for the first two-moments are verified for various coupled processes where analytical solutions are available.
