✦ Synopsis

Redundancy in the simplest form of a two-dimensional TLM network is identified and a method of eliminating it is described. Results obtained using the non-redundant algorithm are compared with those derived from the standard, redundant algorithm. The non-redundant approach is extended to deal with non-uniform elemental capacitance; a cylindrical geometry is taken as an example of this. The scope for and benefits of rendering TLM diffusion models non-redundant are discussed.

The standard methods for bringing a TLM di!usion model to convergence are necessary but tedious. However, much time and e!ort can be saved if the initial choices of elemental size and iteration timestep are appropriate. Here we consider the general form of the solution to the di!usion equation and s

This paper reports the results of a study of an error parameter, m, which has been proposed as a measure for determining the effects on accuracy of the basic assumptions upon which TLM modelling of diffusion and heat flow has been founded. The nature of the m parameter is studied in detail by using
