Week 5 - Mid term project -Steady state vs unsteady analysis

STEADY STATE SOLUTIONS:

  • The steady state solution does not involve time marching .
  • Temperature Gradient does not change with respect to time .
  • The number of grid points are same i.e nx=ny

Following are the results for steady state solution:

jacobi method

Number of iterations done are 217
Time taken for solving equation is 171.586736

Gauss Seidel Method:

Number of iterations done are 117
Time taken for solving equation is 0.005830

Successive Over Relaxation Method

Relaxation factor considered is 1.729454e+00
Number of iterations done are 731

OBSERVATION:

The convergence is faster in terms of time and iteration in the case of Successive Over Relaxation method than Gauss seidel and Jacobi Method.

----------

UNSTEADY STATE EQUATION:

  • The unsteady state solution involves time marching .
  • Temperature Gradient changes with respect to time .
  • The number of grid points are same i.e nx=ny
  • Temperature changes with respect to time reaching steady state.

Following are the results for Transient/unsteady state solution Explicity and Implicitly

1.Explicit Method

2D Unsteady Transient Heat conduction by Explicit Method

gauss sediel Unsteady Implicit

Number of iterations done are 416
Time taken for solving equation is 0.041

Successive Over Relaxation Unsteady Implicit

Relaxation Factor 1.729454
Number of iterations done are 1808
Time taken for solving equation is 0.047837

BSERVATIONS:

  • Solving Implicitly involves larger number of iteration than explicit .
  • Successive Over Relaxation method yields faster and takes less iteration as compared to Gauss Seidel and Jacobi method.
  • Explicit method gives results faster than Successive Over Relaxation Implicit method.
