Abstract

In this paper, we consider and analyze the stability of three implicit/explicit (IMEX) schemes for the time-dependent natural convection problem, these considered numerical schemes contain the first order backward Euler scheme, second order Crank-Nicolson IMEX scheme and BDF2-AB2 combination. All numerical schemes deal with the linear terms implicitly and the nonlinear terms explicitly. Then the original nonlinear problem is split into two linearized subproblems with constant coefficient matrixes, which reduces the computational complexity and saves a lot of storage. The biggest feature of this paper is to establish the unconditional stability of three IMEX schemes for incompressible flows, which improves and supplements the published theoretical findings. Finally, some numerical examples are provided to show the performances of the considered numerical schemes.
