11. Summary
• Be carful for local cell Pe number when we
solve diffusion-‐‑‒advection equation.
• Be careful especially in high Pr and Sc number,
because cell Pe number becomes large.
• We should use stabilized numerical schemes to
solve difficult problems.
Ex)
molten
metal
air
water
Pr ≈ O(0.01)
Pr ≈ O(1)
Pr ≈ 7
