General form of conservation equation

Consider

A sink and flux term which accounts for ADVECTION and DIFFUSION: J

A quantity per unit mass: ∅

Rate of quantity/property generation per unit volume: S


Total quantity per differential control volume d ∀ is [ ρ ∅ ∆ ∀]
∂t

General conservation equation statement refers

Rate of (Sink-Flux) along x faces to/from d ∀ + Rate of generation in∆ ∀ =Rate of change wrt∆ ∀

Rate of (Sink-Flux) along x faces= J x ∆ y ∆ z−J x+∆ x ∆ y ∆ z=[ J x −J x +∆ x ]∆ y ∆ z
