[petsc-users] Solving advection equations implicitly

Hi all,

I want to implicitly solve a linear advection equation of the form:
dQ/dt + div(u*Q) = 0

for a scalar quantity Q, with some known velocity field u. Note that it is
purely advection with no diffusion term.

Is there a recommended solver/preconditioner combination to solve something
like this?
