How do I supply different constants into a function of a loop?

1 view (last 30 days)
My code is currently supplying 2 constants of A only. How do I supply another 2 constants of B into the same function?
n=30;
% Initialization
T=zeros(n,n);
T(1,:) = 410; % Top
T(end,:) = 420; % Bottom
T(:,1) = 400; % Left
T(:,end) = 400; % Right
T_old = T;
% Constants of A
k1 = 0.02;
k2 = 0.33;
% Constants of B
% k1 = 0.04;
% k2 = 0.67;
for k = 1:20 %time steps
for j = 2: (n-1)
for i = 2: (n-1)
T(i,j) = T_old(i,j)*(1-2*k1-2*k2)+k1*(T_old(i-1,j)+T_old(i+1,j))+k2*(T_old(i,j-1)+T_old(i,j+1));
end
end
T_old = T;
end

But you are already doing it. Your question is not clear.

I'm so sorry that I'm not good in English and I didn't explain it clearly enough.
What I meant was I have 2 values of k1 and 2 values of k2. But the function in my loop only takes 1 value of k1 and 1 value of k2 from A.
There are 2 values of k1 and of k2 due to different x and y intervals.

Start with the code I posted in response to another one of your Questions, https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/857275-loop-never-stops#answer_725790
and subs() different k1, k2 values as desired.
If you were careful enough about how you proceeded, you could create 2D array of combinations of k1, k2 values, move those into the 3rd and 4th dimension, and subs() once, to get a single 4D array.... though visualizing the result could be tricky!

Finally, i got everything to work! I've spent 1 week on this. Thank you so much!

I've also tried the numeric matrices approach by turning the scalar k into vector k(i,j). It is much faster compared with symbolic method. But anyway, thank you!
