  2. Finite volume method for three-dimensional diffusion problem

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

    Convection is always followed by diffusion and hence where convection is considered we have to consider combine effect of convection and diffusion. But in places where fluid flow plays a non-considerable role we can neglect the convective effect of the flow. In this case we have to consider more simplistic case of only diffusion.

  3. Finite volume method for two dimensional diffusion problem

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

    The methods used for solving two dimensional Diffusion problems are similar to those used for one dimensional problems. The general equation for steady diffusion can be easily derived from the general transport equation for property Φ by deleting transient and convective terms [1]

  4. Convection–diffusion equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convectiondiffusion...

    The convectiondiffusion 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 ...

  5. Numerical solution of the convection–diffusion equation

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

    The convectiondiffusion equation describes the flow of heat, particles, or other physical quantities in situations where there is both diffusion and convection or advection. For information about the equation, its derivation, and its conceptual importance and consequences, see the main article convectiondiffusion equation. This article ...

  6. Hybrid difference scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_difference_scheme

    The hybrid difference scheme [1] [2] is a method used in the numerical solution for convectiondiffusion problems. It was introduced by Spalding (1970). It is a combination of central difference scheme and upwind difference scheme as it exploits the favorable properties of both of these schemes.

  7. Upwind differencing scheme for convection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upwind_differencing_scheme...

    The upwind differencing scheme is a method used in numerical methods in computational fluid dynamics for convectiondiffusion problems. This scheme is specific for Peclet number greater than 2 or less than −2

  8. Central differencing scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_differencing_scheme

    The right side of the convection-diffusion equation, which basically highlights the diffusion terms, can be represented using central difference approximation. To simplify the solution and analysis, linear interpolation can be used logically to compute the cell face values for the left side of this equation, which is nothing but the convective ...

  9. Finite volume method for one-dimensional steady state diffusion

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

    The first well-documented use of this method was by Evans and Harlow (1957) at Los Alamos. The general equation for steady diffusion can easily be derived from the general transport equation for property Φ by deleting transient and convective terms. [1] General Transport equation can be defined as
