In this paper the heat transfer problem in transient and cylindrical coordinates will be solved by the Crank-Nicolson method in conjunction the Finite Difference Method. To validate the formulation will study the numerical efficiency by comparisons of numerical results compared with two exact solutions.

<p class="Normal1"><strong><em>Abstract: </em></strong><em>Partial Differential Equations (PDP) Laplace equation can be applied to the heat conduction. Heat conduction is a process that if two materials or two-part temperature material is contacted with another it will pass heat transfer. Conduction of heat in a triangle shaped object has a mathematical model in Cartesian coordinates. However, to facilitate the calculation, the mathematical model of heat conduction is transformed into the coordinates of the triangle.

This paper presents the results of mathematical modelling of three–dimensional heat transfer in a closed two-phase thermosyphon taking into account phase transitions. Three-dimensional conduction equation was solved by means of the finite difference method (FDM). Locally one-dimensional scheme of Samarskiy was used to approximate the differential equations. The effect of the thermosyphon height and temperature of its bottom lid on the temperature difference in the vapor section was shown.

Mathematical modeling of air duct heater using the finite difference method In this research, mathematical modeling of a duct heater has been performed using energy conservation law, Stefan-Boltzman law in thermal radiation, Fourier's law in conduction heat transfer, and Newton's law of cooling in convection heat transfer. The duct was divided to some elements with equal length. Each element has been studied separately and air physical properties in each element have been used based on its temperature. The derived equations have been solved using the finite difference method and consequently air temperature, internal and external temperatures of the wall, internal and external convection heat transfer coefficients, and the quantity of heat transferred have been calculated in each element and effects of the variation of heat transfer parameters have been surveyed. The results of modelling presented in this paper can be used for the design and optimization of heat exchangers.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate natural convection fluid flow and heat transfer inside C-shaped enclosures filled with Cu-Water nanofluid numerically using the finite difference method. Design/methodology/approach – In this investigation, the finite difference method is employed to solve the governing equations with the boundary conditions. Central difference quotients were used to approximate the second derivatives in both the X and Y directions. Then, the obtained discretized equations are solved using a Gauss-Seidel iteration technique. Findings – It was found from the obtained results that the mean Nusselt number increased with increase in Rayleigh number and volume fraction of Cu nanoparticles regardless aspect ratio of the enclosure. Moreover the obtained results showed that the rate of heat transfer increased with decreasing the aspect ratio of the cavity. Also, it was found that the rate of heat transfer increased with increase in nanoparticles volume fraction. Also at low Rayleigh numbers, the effect of Cu nanoparticles on enhancement of heat transfer for narrow enclosures was more than that for wide enclosures. Originality/value – This paper is relatively original for considering C-shaped cavity with nanofluids.

Numerical simulation of the consolidation test was developed in different drainage conditions using the finite difference method. Soil sample was divided into layers to determine the time-steps of the test. A series of simulation tests were carried out to study the influence of drainage height on the coefficient ratio. Finally, some experiments data were compared with the numerical simulation results. Numerical results indicate that the simulation method broke through the limitation of test apparatus, and made it possible to conduct big size specimen consolidation test under certain conditions.
