✦ Synopsis

The Taylor-least squares (TLS) scheme, developed to solve the unsteady advection4iffusion equation for advection-dominated cases in one and two dimensions, is extended to three dimensions and applied to some 3D examples to demonstrate its accuracy. The serendipity Hermite element is selected as an interpolation function on a linear hexagonal element. As a validation of the code and as a simple sensitivity analysis of the scheme on the different types of shape functions, the 2D example problem of the previous study is solved again. Four 3D problems, two with advection and two with advection+iiffusion, are also solved. The first two examples are advection of a steep 3D Gaussian hill in rotational flow fields. For the advection4iffusion problems with fairly general flow fields and diffusion tensors, analytical solutions are obtained using the ray method. Despite the steepness of the initial conditions, very good agreement is observed between the analytical and TLS solutions.

Taylor‐Galerkin methods are used together with the type of splines known as B‐splines to construct the approximation functions over the finite elements for the solution of time‐dependent advection‐

The numerical results show that the new submesh is able to better capture the boundary layer which is caused by the choice of bubble functions.
