摘要
A new fractional step method in conjunction with the finite element method is proposed for the analysis of the thermal convection and conduction in a fluid region expressed by the momentum equations, the equation of continuity and the energy equation. This paper focuses on the features of the present finite element method which gives a simple way of treating the Neumann boundary condition for the pressure Poisson equation. The applicability and effectiveness of the proposed scheme are illustrated through the numerical examples of the two-dimensional natural convection flow in enclosures with several Rayleigh numbers.
