Abstract
Air quality models base on mass balances described by systems of time-dependent, three-dimensional advection-diffusion-reaction equations. The solution of such systems is numerically expensive in terms of computing time. This requires the use of fast parallel computers. Multiblock grid techniques and implicit-explicit (IMEX) time integration schemes are suited to take benefit from the parallel architecture. A parallel version of the multiscale chemistry-transport code MUSCAT (MUiltiScale Chemistry Aerosol Transport) is presented which is based on these techniques (Wolke and Knoth, 2000).
