  • Abstract
    In this paper a nite dierence method for solving 2-dimensional diusion equation is presented. The method employs Crank-Nicolson scheme to improve - nite dierence formulation and its convergence and sta- bility. The obtained solution will be a recursive formula in each step of which a system of linear equations should be solved. Given the specic form of obtained matri- ces, rather than solving the problem in each step using conventional iterative methods, a closed-form solution is formulated.
