MATLAB code that solves for the velocity, pressure, and temperature for laminar flow between parallel plates using the Finite Volume Method (FVM) and the SIMPLE algorithm. Details of the equations implemented are included on the attached pdf file. The inlet condition is uniform flow and temperature. The boundary condition for the top wall can be either fixed temperature or fixed heat flux. The boundary condition for the bottom wall is symmetry (for half way between plates). All gradients except pressure are zero at the outlet.
