Abstract

In this work, we present a non-intrusive method using the Reduced Basis framework in order to diminish the cost of numerical simulation arising from the computation of parameters-dependent Partial Differential Equations (PDE). This method involves the computation of less expensive (but less accurate) solutions of the PDE during the online stage, and a RB-based rectification step. It represents a good substitute for standard Reduced Basis methods when it is applied to urban flows modelling. This approach speeds up the CFD simulation while remaining non-intrusive in relation to the high fidelity model, which can allow to avoid practical problems (e.g. non-affine parametric dependence) associated to model reduction for complex air flows involved in many sophisticated methods of urban air quality modeling. Our focus here is on the validation of the non-intrusive method applied to the backward-facing step 2D benchmark.
