Solutions to divergence form equations using the method of partial implicitization

Partial implicitization is well suited for use on vector-processing computers since the method is an explicit unconditionally stable numerical technique. So far equations cast in nondivergence form have been used, though equations cast in the divergence form would have inherently greater accuracy. Since the method of partial implicitization is applicable only to relaxing problems to their steady state and is not applicable to true transient problems, a simple mathematical manipulation can be carried out which will produce the desired partial implicitization solution to divergence form equations.
