- This paper outlines a new hybrid multiscale simulation method, combining the efficiency of a conventional continuum fluid solver with the accuracy of the particle-based direct simulation Monte Carlo Method. The approach taken is 'heterogenous' unlike other hybrid methods in the field. The method also differs from others in the field by placing focus on heat transfer. Part of an EPSRC funded partnership 'Micro and Nano Flows for Engineering' https://www.micronanoflows.ac.uk/. This work provided the basis for further development of the hybrid method.
