A hybrid Eulerian-Lagrangian approach in the spray combustion modeling is being remarkably noticed recently. It is highly expected that there is a potential for the use of finite element methods in spray combustion because of there well-established methematical foundation and ease in modeling the complex geometries and boundary conditions.<br/>
In this research. the element refinement algorithm(h-method) applicable to hybrid Eulerian-Lagrangian FEM is studied. The h-method algorithm applicable to the simplified gas-phase energy equation and droplet equation is studied and the stability and convergence characterisric of numerical scheme is investigated. Various kinds of error indicator is compared and computational experiment is performed on this optimized numerical scheme.<br/>
