2 Question 1 Solution: Problem Statement:

3 Analysis: The conservative form of the navier stokes equation has been employed for the analysis. Pressure correction is used for updating the values of velocity and temperature. The algorithm for solving the problem is as shown below: Input parameters Boundary Conditions & Stability Criteria Temporary Velocity using NS equation - Conservative form Pressure Correction and error check Update Velocity Energy equation solution Plot Results Conservative form of Navier Stokes Equation is as follows: u t + u2 x + uv x = Pr u ( 2 x u P y2) x v t + v2 y + uv y = Pr u ( 2 x u P y2) + Pr. Ra. T x T t + ut x + vt y = Pr T ( 2 x T y 2)
