This contribution presents a generalization of the recently proposed Finite Cell Method (FCM) for problems in solid mechanics to the simulation of convection-diffusion transport problems in porous media. The FCM – a combination of a Fictitious Domain approach and high order Finite Elements – is an accurate computational technique for complex domains, which dispenses with the need for generating boundary conforming meshes. The high order FEM will be shown to stabilize the oscillation at nodal solutions introduced in convection-dominated problems. One- and two-dimensional model problems are demonstrated where exponential convergence rates are observed. The validity of the approach is studied for convection- and diffusion-dominated flows, concluding this treatise with a three-dimensional single component convection-diffusion example and a two-dimensional multi-component reactive transport problem based on a complex interior geometrical structure to emphasize the potential of this method.
