Convection-diffusion equation


\begin{displaymath}
\rho C ( \dot{T} + \beta_i \frac{\partial T}{\partial x_i} ...
...{x_2}^2} +
\frac{\partial^2 T}{\partial {x_3}^2} ) -
a T + f
\end{displaymath}

The primary unknown is the condif_temperature T. Further notation: $\rho$ group_condif_density; C group_condif_capacity; x space coordinate; $\beta_i$ group_condif_flow in i-direction; k group_condif_conductivity; a group_condif_absorption; f force_element_volume. Typical applications are heat conduction and heat conduction in a flow.
