Abstract
A new nonstandard Eulerian{Lagrangian method is constructed for the one-dimensional, transient convective-dispersive transport equation with nonlinear reaction terms. An exact difference scheme is applied to the convection-reaction part of the equation to produce a semi-discrete approximation with zero local truncation errors with respect to time. The spatial derivatives involved in the remaining dispersion term are then approximated using standard numerical methods. This approach leads to significant, qualitative improvements in the behavior of the numerical solution. It suppresses the numerical instabilities that arise from the incorrect modeling of derivatives and nonlinear reaction terms. Numerical experiments demonstrate the scheme’s ability to model convection-dominated, reactive transport problems. c 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
