Purpose The purpose of this paper is to describe an extension of the boundary element method (BEM) and the dual reciprocity boundary element method (DRBEM) formulations developed for one- and two-dimensional steady-state problems, to analyse transient convection–diffusion problems associated with first-order chemical reaction. Design/methodology/approach The mathematical modelling has used a dual reciprocity approximation to transform the domain integrals arising in the transient equation into equivalent boundary integrals. The integral representation formula for the corresponding problem is obtained from the Green’s second identity, using the fundamental solution of the corresponding steady-state equation with constant coefficients. The finite difference method is used to simulate the time evolution procedure for solving the resulting system of equations. Three different radial basis functions have been successfully implemented to increase the accuracy of the solution and improving the rate of convergence. Findings The numerical results obtained demonstrate the excellent agreement with the analytical solutions to establish the validity of the proposed approach and to confirm its efficiency. Originality/value Finally, the proposed BEM and DRBEM numerical solutions have not displayed any artificial diffusion, oscillatory behaviour or damping of the wave front, as appears in other different numerical methods.

A Boundary Element Method (BEM) formulation for the determination of design sensitivities of temperature distributions to various shape and process parameters in steady-state convection-diffusion problems is presented in this paper. The present formulation is valid for constant or piecewise-constant convective velocities. This approach is based on direct differentiation (DDA) of the relevant BEM formulation of the problem. It retains the advantages of the BEM regarding accuracy and efficiency while avoiding strongly singular kernels. The BEM formulation is also observed to avoid any false diffusion. This approach provides a new avenue toward efficient optimization of steady-state convection-diffusion problems and may be easily adapted to investigate the thermal aspects of various machining processes.

AbstractIn this work we utilize the boundary integral equation and the Dual Reciprocity Boundary Element Method (DRBEM) for the solution of the steady state convection-diffusion-reaction equations with variable convective coefficients in two-dimension. The DRBEM is a numerical method to transform the domain integrals into the boundary only integrals by using the fundamental solution of Helmholtz equation. Some examples are calculated to confirm the accuracy of the approach. The results obtained by the analytic solutions are in good agreement with ones provided by the DRBEM technique.
