... segment of the original equation separately. Each of the subproblems is solved numerically using finite volume methods in such a way as to preserve the qualitative properties of the solutions related to each of the continuous subproblems. In particular, we split Equation (1) using a fractional time step...

...Shumei Lou; Guoqun Zhao; Rui Wang; Xianghong Wu Purpose The purpose of this paper is to find an efficient way by using finite volume method (FVM) to simulate the aluminum alloy profile extrusion processes. Design/methodology/approach By assuming isotropic conditions, the hot aluminum material...

... equations are discretized using the finite volume method based on central, second‐order accurate formulas for both convection and diffusion terms. Artificial dissipation terms are added externally in order to control the odd‐even decoupling problem. Findings The numerical model was conceived within...

... with the inclusion of a high‐order reconstruction of the point‐wise velocity field on a fourth‐order accurate numerical scheme for the solution of the unsteady incompressible Navier‐Stokes equations. Design/methodology/approach The present finite volume method uses a fractional time‐step for decoupling velocity...
