Abstract: Based on the fourth-order compact difference formula of the second-order derivative in spatial direction and Taylor series expansion in time direction,a high-order explicit compact difference scheme for the one dimentional diffusion equation is developed.The stability of the scheme is analyzed by Fourier method,and the condition of stability is λ≤1/2(λ is the mesh ratio).Numerical experiments are carried out to verify the accuracy and reliability of the present scheme.

Key words: diffusion equation, high accuracy, compact scheme, explicit scheme, finite difference method
