Comparison of several convergence indicators such as the tracer, ester and alcohol outlet concentration profiles maximum peak concentrations max C(i,W) (i = t, e, a) and the tracer width at mid height , when using first- and second-order schemes and performing a grid refinement.
Scheme | n | max C t,W (ppm) | max C e,W (ppm) | max C a,W (ppm) |
