  2. Finite volume method for two dimensional diffusion problem

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_volume_method_for...

    We obtain the distribution of the property i.e. a given two dimensional situation by writing discretized equations of the form of equation (3) at each grid node of the subdivided domain. At the boundaries where the temperature or fluxes are known the discretized equation are modified to incorporate the boundary conditions.

  3. Population balance equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Population_balance_equation

    Consider the average number of particles with particle properties denoted by a particle state vector (x,r) (where x corresponds to particle properties like size, density, etc. also known as internal coordinates and, r corresponds to spatial position or external coordinates) dispersed in a continuous phase defined by a phase vector Y(r,t) (which again is a function of all such vectors which ...

  4. Numerical solution of the convection–diffusion equation

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_solution_of_the...

    The unsteady convection–diffusion problem is considered, at first the known temperature T is expanded into a Taylor series with respect to time taking into account its three components. Next, using the convection diffusion equation an equation is obtained from the differentiation of this equation.

  5. Godunov's scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godunov's_scheme

    In numerical analysis and computational fluid dynamics, Godunov's scheme is a conservative numerical scheme, suggested by Sergei Godunov in 1959, [1] for solving partial differential equations. One can think of this method as a conservative finite volume method which solves exact, or approximate Riemann problems at each inter-cell boundary. In ...

  6. Volume of fluid method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_of_fluid_method

    For each cell, properties such as density are calculated by a volume fraction average of all fluids in the cell ρ = ∑ m = 1 n ρ m C m . {\displaystyle \rho =\sum _{m=1}^{n}\rho _{m}C_{m}.} These properties are then used to solve a single momentum equation through the domain, and the attained velocity field is shared among the fluids.

  7. SIMPLE algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIMPLE_algorithm

    The basic steps in the solution update are as follows: Set the boundary conditions. Compute the gradients of velocity and pressure. Solve the discretized momentum equation to compute the intermediate velocity field. Compute the uncorrected mass fluxes at faces. Solve the pressure correction equation to produce cell values of the pressure ...

  8. Collocation method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collocation_method

    In mathematics, a collocation method is a method for the numerical solution of ordinary differential equations, partial differential equations and integral equations.The idea is to choose a finite-dimensional space of candidate solutions (usually polynomials up to a certain degree) and a number of points in the domain (called collocation points), and to select that solution which satisfies the ...

  9. Specific volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_volume

    For a substance X with a specific volume of 0.657 cm 3 /g and a substance Y with a specific volume 0.374 cm 3 /g, the density of each substance can be found by taking the inverse of the specific volume; therefore, substance X has a density of 1.522 g/cm 3 and substance Y has a density of 2.673 g/cm 3. With this information, the specific ...
