Abstract

In CFD approaches, the partial differential equations are converted into algebraic equations by discretization methods (i.e. finite difference, finite volume and finite element method). The algebraic equations are modified to incorporate boundary conditions. The large set of algebraic equations so obtained, is then solved by iterative numerical procedures to obtain the Unknown flow variables like pressure, velocity, temperature etc. at all grid points in the domain of interest. The solution can then be visualized in the form of velocity vector plot, contour plots of pressure, temperature or any other derived quantity. Important engineering quantities like heat flux, drag force, lift force; pressure drop etc. can be calculated from the solution.
