This article will develop a dynamic model of a cross-flow heat exchanger from first principles, and then discretize the governing partial differential equation with finite difference approximations. One dimensional parabolic equation – Explicit and Crank-Nicolson Schemes – Thomas Algorithm – Weighted average approximation – Dirichlet and Neumann Mitchell A.R. Numerical solutions for the governing equations subject to the appropriate boundary conditions are obtained by a finite difference scheme known as Keller-Box method. UNIT IV FINITE DIFFERENCE METHODS FOR PARABOLIC EQUATIONS 9. Explicit finite difference method is employed to solve the equations. The governing partial differential equations are non-dimensionalised and solved by finite element method. Parametric form – Physical applications:Fluid flow and heat flow problems. Finite difference schemes and partial differential equations. Renaut [a8] provides a standard approach by Finite-difference solutions of partial differential equations are usually local in space because only a few grid points on the computational grid are employed to derive approximations to the underlying partial derivatives in the equation. Also Stability; Difference scheme). And Griffith D.F., The Finite difference method in partial differential equations, John Wiley and sons, New York (1980). The ADI (alternate directions implicit) method is widely used for the numerical solution of multidimensional parabolic PDE (partial differential equations). Finite Difference Schemes of One Variable. In particular, a stable finite difference approximation to the one-way wave equation is also required (cf. The porous medium is discretised with unstructured . The numerical results thus obtained are of partial differential equations.
