摘要
An attempt has been made to solve the heat conduction equation in a multiconnected domain using both boundary fitted coordinate system and finite element method. It has been found that boundary fitted coordinate system takes significantly less time in setting up the grid lines or mesh points compared to the finite element method of ANSYS. It has also been established that the former method takes much less time in obtaining a grid independent solution of the temperature field compared to the later one.
