time step size of 0.002 second.

(Case 1)

T = 1.08
With a time step size of dt = 0.002

# I can't repair the axis of Exact and trans with the cfd solution !!

4
 B)
(1) With a time step size of 0.01 sec.

(2) With a time step size of 0.1 sec.

5
 (2) With a time step size of 0.2 sec.

COMMEMT:
• All results and plots are stable with changing of the time step.
• Also, with very small time step, Which proves that Laasonen Implicit is
unconditionally stable.

6
(c) Calculate and plot the velocity profile using a time step size of 0.0001sec.

-Solution by inverse matrix method by take a very small time step takes a lot of
time compared to the Thomas algorithm method.
