Summary

An adaptive method for reactive flows involving locally refined meshes and different types of diffusion models is proposed. Starting with a less exact diffusion model, the model is changed locally throughout the computational domain to a more accurate and much more expensive model. An a posteriori error estimator provides reliable information on where to refine the mesh and where to adapt the model. Discretization and modeling errors are equilibrated.
