Implicit vs Explicit Numerical Methods | CFD-101 by Dr. CW ...
www.flow3d.com › resources › cfd-101Numerical solution schemes are often referred to as being explicit or implicit. When a direct computation of the dependent variables can be made in terms of known quantities, the computation is said to be explicit. When the dependent variables are defined by coupled sets of equations, and either a matrix or iterative technique is needed to obtain the solution, the numerical method is said to be implicit.
