  2. Subduction tectonics of the Philippines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subduction_tectonics_of...

    The Philippine Mobile Belt (also called as Taiwan–Luzon–Mindoro Mobile Belt [11]) is a complex tectonic zone which sits at the convergence zone of the Eurasian plate, Philippine Sea plate, and Indo-Australian plate. [9] It covers the whole Philippine archipelago and extends southwards to the Molucca Sea and eastern Indonesia.

  3. QUICK scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quick_scheme

    In central differencing scheme and second order upwind scheme the first order derivative is included and the second order derivative is ignored. These schemes are therefore considered second order accurate where as QUICK does take the second order derivative into account, but ignores the third order derivative hence this is considered third ...

  4. False diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_diffusion

    It was recognized independently by several investigators [1] [2] that the less expensive but only first order accurate upwind scheme can be employed but that this scheme produces results with false diffusion for multidimensional cases. Many new schemes have been developed to counter false diffusion but a reliable, accurate and economical ...

    Lower case denotes the face and upper case denotes node; , , and refer to the "East," "West," and "Central" cell. (again, see Fig. 1 below). Defining variable F as convection mass flux and variable D as diffusion conductance = and =

  6. Upwind scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upwind_scheme

    In computational physics, the term advection scheme refers to a class of numerical discretization methods for solving hyperbolic partial differential equations.In the so-called upwind schemes typically, the so-called upstream variables are used to calculate the derivatives in a flow field.

  7. Combined forced and natural convection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combined_forced_and...

    The first case is when natural convection aids forced convection. This is seen when the buoyant motion is in the same direction as the forced motion, thus accelerating the boundary layer and enhancing the heat transfer. [5] Transition to turbulence, however, can be delayed. [6] An example of this would be a fan blowing upward on a hot plate.

  8. Burgers' equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burgers'_equation

    Burgers' equation or Bateman–Burgers equation is a fundamental partial differential equation and convection–diffusion equation [1] occurring in various areas of applied mathematics, such as fluid mechanics, [2] nonlinear acoustics, [3] gas dynamics, and traffic flow. [4]

  9. Convection–diffusion equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convection–diffusion...

    The convection–diffusion equation can be derived in a straightforward way [4] from the continuity equation, which states that the rate of change for a scalar quantity in a differential control volume is given by flow and diffusion into and out of that part of the system along with any generation or consumption inside the control volume: + =, where j is the total flux and R is a net ...
