Abstract
The two-dimensional Danish Eulerian Model has been developed during the 80'ies. More than 70 chemical reactions (some of them photochemical) are involved in the model. The space domain of the model covers the whole of Europe. It has been discretized by using a (32 × 32) equidistant spatial grid. The concentrations and the species calculated by the model were compared both with measurements taken over land and with measurements taken over sea. The model has also been run by using finer grids; as, for example, a (96 × 96) grid. The experiments indicated that in general the model calculates rather reliable results. However, it is also clear that the results might be improved if a three-dimensional version of the model is developed. Three-dimensional air pollution models are very time-consuming. Therefore the development of a reliable three-dimensional version of an air pollution model is a very challenging task. The efforts to solve some of the numerical problems arising during the development of a large three-dimensional air pollution model (with non-linear chemical reactions) will be discussed in this paper.
