CVFEM Coupled with FLO Scheme for Solution to Heat and Fluid Problems

Abstract

Nowadays, CVFEM has proved to bean effective methodfor solving real problems in CFD. Combining advantages of CVFDMs with those of FEMs results in an improved method, able to deal with complexes geometries, and satisfy local and global conservation principles. To solve dynamical field, a good scheme is always required for discretization of the convective terms. The FLO scheme is opted for in this study, because it is extracted as exact solution from a modified equation. The resolution procedure used is the SIVA. Coding this procedure is achieved using advanced instructions in Fortran 90/95. The presented results, prove a best agreement with benchmarks.
