As part of our effort in applying multigrid solvers to combustion modeling, we have developed a multigrid solver for a simplified 3-D combustion model. With this solver we were able to reduce the error on a 65 x 65 x 65 grid within 181 CPU minutes on a Convex C120 computer. The details of the algorithms, including the distributive relaxation and the results of numerical experiments are presented in this paper.
