If you are using a finite volume type code then read Numerical Heat Transfer and Fluid Flow by Patankar.
A few questions you may want to ask yourself is: 1) Is the rate of change of the source term large? if not then you may want to treat it explicitly (Picard iteration) [ I like to keep things simple ] 2) What is the realative magnitude of your source term compared with your other terms? If you are using an implicit method the source term may have a large impact on your linear solver. This may not be very much help but the answer really depends on the code you are using.. |

I use the finite difference type, the soures is non-inertia sourse term. In fact, I cauld deal with it using moving grid, But my tutor ask me to take the non-intertia as sourse term.
