Abstract

A stable fast marching scheme has been developed for the solution of coupled parabolic partial differential equations such as the Navier–Stokes equations. The scheme was developed with the aid of a stability analysis. The implementation of the method in standard alternating direction implicit algorithms is straightforward. The scheme was tested on the problem of natural convection in a square cavity. The number of iterations required for convergence was significantly reduced compared to conventional methods.
