By focusing on the advection-diffusion equation, a numerical algorithm is presented for handling in an efficient way partial differential equations in \(n\)-dimensional geometry of complex shapes \((1 \leq n \leq 3)\). This spectral embedding method is based on the following ideas: -- using a semi-implicit finite difference scheme in time, in which the linear terms are treated implicitly and the nonlinear problem explicitly (as generally done with spectral methods); -- using an embedding approach for handling the body force term by producing a periodic extension of this body force term, and then by using Fourier analysis to get the periodic solution; -- using boundary elements to enforce the boundary conditions. Some numerical tests are presented in order to give measurements of the accuracy of the method and to outline its capabilities.
