Abstract

In this contribution we discuss about numerical modeling of nebulae. In\nparticular we emphasize on the dynamical evolution of an HII region and the\nchemical structure of a Photodissociation region. We do this using the Smoothed\nParticles Hydrodynamics code SEREN and the recently developed astrochemistry\ncode 3D-PDR, respectively. We show an example application by simulating a\ncometary globule using these two codes.\n
