Abstract :This paper studies a velocity-vorticity-temperature insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(VVT); model of the Boussinesq equations and introduces a numerical method for solving that. The proposed numerical method adds separate three minimally intrusive steps, one for each fluid variable, except pressure, to the standard semi-implicit backward-Euler insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(BE); approximation of VVT-model. The key idea in these intrusive steps is to post-process the BE approximate solutions with 2-step, second order, linear time filters. The paper provides full mathematical analysis of the proposed numerical method, and two numerical experiments for that. The first numerical experiment verifies the predicted convergence rates while the second one shows the effectiveness of the method on a benchmark problem.
