Simulation
time for all engineering systems represents a significant decision criterion in
any product design cycle. For any system involving heat transfer and fluid flow,
the adequacy of the convection model plays a significant role. However, accuracy
and processing time are two major challenging factors with previous advection
schemes. Also, the demands for removing waste heat from these simulation devices
are outpacing advances in the development of the very large-scale integration
(VLSI) technology.
A new simulation tool known as Non-Inverted Skew Upwind Scheme,
for 3-D fluid
flow and heat transfer problems, has been developed. This new upwind scheme for
convection modeling in CFD was undertaken with the aim of providing improvement
to solution accuracy, while reducing CPU time costs. Future studies include the
development of efficient heat pipe technology, an hybrid convection scheme and its integration for complex industrial
problems, including Lattice-Boltzmann simulation for nano-structured process
modelling.
