Claim One:
1. Method for implementing a geometric multi-cell system dynamics model having an embedded grid, model cells of the embedded grid having a finer size relative to the grid size of other model cells, the method comprising: (a) at a computational grid level, iteratively solving transport equations between each of the embedded grid cells and the other cells, and respective adjacent cells for each of the embedded grid cells and the other cells, to provide one or more thermophysical values, and then solving residual equations for providing residuals for the values for the embedded grid cells and the other cells; (b) grouping the embedded grid cells to provide composite cells of the same grid size as the other cells; (c) averaging the computational level residuals of the respective embedded grid cells of each composite cell to provide average residuals for the composite cells; and (d) at a uniform cell size grid level, iteratively solving residual equations using the average residuals for the composite cells to recalculate the residuals for the other cells and the composite cells.
