Often computational models are too expensive to be solved in the entire domain of simulation, and a cheaper model would suffice away from the main zone of interest. We present for the concrete example of an evolution problem of advection reaction diffusion type a heterogeneous domain decomposition algorithm which allows us to recover a solution that is very close to the solution of the fully viscous problem, but solves only an inviscid problem in parts of the domain. Our new algorithm is based on the factorization of the underlying differential operator, and we therefore call it factorization algorithm. We give a detailed error analysis, and show that we can obtain approximations in the viscous region which are much closer to the viscous solution in the entire domain of simulation than approximations obtained by other heterogeneous domain decomposition algorithms from the literature.
