    Abstract

    The Dual Reciprocity Boundary Element Method (DRBEM) is used to solve incompressible laminar viscous fluid flows and heat transfer. The DRBEM is extended to develop a pressure correction scheme to solve the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The velocity field is then used as input to the DRBEM solution of the energy transport equation, thereby retaining the boundary only discretization feature of the BEM for the solution of this problem. Numerical results for the proposed DRBEM solution for laminar flow and heat transfer in a channel are obtained for several Reynolds numbers and compare well with previously published data.
