Specify remeshing technique, solver method and evolution parameters Yes No 5. Solver solves the conservation equations using the specified data and boundary conditions Modify remeshing techniques, solver methods and/or evolution parameters Modify the mesh

General Assumptions and incompressible Body forces and Inertia effects are negligible in comparison with viscous and pressure forces. The flow is steady Specific heat at constant pressure, C p, and thermal conductivity, k, are constant
