  ABSTRACT: In this paper, we implement energy equation coupled with viscous Burgers’ equation as a mathematical model for the estimation of thermal pollution of river water. The model is a nonlinear system of partial differential equations (PDEs) that read as an initial and boundary value problem (IBVP). For the numerical solution of the IBVP, we investigate an explicit second-order Lax- Wendroff type scheme for nonlinear parabolic PDEs. We present the numerical solutions graphically as a temperature profile, which shows good qualitative agreement with natural phenomena of heat transfer. We estimate the thermal pollution of water caused by industrialization on the bank of a river.
