Finite Difference Schemes for the Determination of Thermal Coefficient and Analysis of its Variation with Time
Abstract
In this paper, numerical solution of thermal conduction problem has been analyzed. Three Finitedifference schemes have been derived for the determination of thermal coefficient and for temperaturedistribution at different time levels. Moreover, by using derived schemes a test problem has beensolved and computed results have been compared with exact solutions for different time level, itreveals accuracy of these schemes as well as the physical behavior of the test problem. The generalpattern which has been observed is that with passage of time temperature distribution increases.References
