  • Solving the Poisson equations in spherical coordinate system is a key problem in computational fluid dynamics. Hence, using a conjugate gradient method named Bi-CGSTAB, the typical Poisson equation whose right-hand-side source term is-1 with zero boundary value was solved to give a numerical solution in a domain similar to that in round jet calculation Ω:{ r∈[7,52],  θ∈[-θb,θb], φ∈ [0,2π], θb=arctan(1/14)}. The numerical solution and its relevant residual of discretized equation were discussed.
