Absolute error of the present method is compared to the absolute error of the two existing methods for two test problems. The method is also analyzed for a third test problem, nu-merical solutions as well as exact solutions for different values of viscosity are calculated and we find that the numerical solutions are very close to exact solution.展开更多

It has a fourth-order approximation in the space variables, and a second-order approximation in the time variable. As an application, we developed the proposed numerical scheme for solving a numerical solution of the two-dimensional coupled Burgers’ equations. The main advantages of our scheme are higher accurate accuracy and facility to implement. The good accuracy of the proposed numerical scheme is tested by comparing the approximate numerical and the exact solutions for several two-dimensional coupled Burgers’ equations.展开更多
