Two important factors, heat and magnetic influences are involved. The mathematical model is formulated by four nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs), determining four major physical variables. The influences of magnetic fields are supposed to be weak, and the strength is parallel to the <i>z</i>-axis. The elliptic equation is treated by a block-centered method, and the law of conservation is preserved. The computational accuracy is improved one order. Other equations are convection-dominated, thus are approximated by upwind block-centered differences. Upwind difference can eliminate numerical dispersion and nonphysical oscillation. The diffusion is approximated by the block-centered difference, while the convection term is treated by upwind approximation. Furthermore, the unknowns and adjoint functions are computed at the same time. These characters play important roles in numerical computations of conductor device problems. Using the theories of priori analysis such as energy estimates, the principle of duality and mathematical inductions, an optimal estimates result is obtained.
