Abstract

We consider thermal fluid structure interaction with a partitioned approach, where typically, a finite volume and a finite element code would be coupled. As a model problem, we consider two coupled Poisson problems with heat conductivities \(\lambda _1\), \(\lambda _2\) in one dimension on intervals of length \(l_1\) and \(l_2\). Hereby, we consider linear discretizations on arbitrary meshes, such as finite volumes, finite differences, finite elements. For these, we prove that the convergence rate of the Dirichlet-Neumann iteration is given by \(\lambda _1l_2/\lambda _2l_1\) and is thus independent of discretization and mesh.
