Development of interface concepts using averaging techniques (A03)

• Subject Area: Mathematics ; Fluid Mechanics
• Term: since 2018
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 327154368

The aim of the project is mathematical modelling, numerical simulation and analysis of coupled free-flow and porous-medium systems on the REV scale for arbitrary flow directions to the fluid–porous interface. The interface concepts already derived in the project will be extended taking into consideration species and energy transport and will also be adapted to describe fluid flow in fractured porous media. To solve these coupled flow problems, new robust and efficient numerical methods will be developed and analysed. The validation and calibration of the new models will be carried out. The project will contribute to the joint benchmark and the vision topic salt within the CRC.
