Abstract

This project is aimed at implementing the Finite Difference Method for solution of two-dimensional convection-dimensional diffusion equation with power generation in steady state and cylindrical coordinates. It is hoped that from this project the student is be able to learn the numerical technique and evolve in the knowledge in numerical programming and that its results can be presented in the form of an article in conference or journal, which demonstrates its evolution in the art of science communication.
