contents The Successive Over-Relaxation (SOR) method is a useful method for solving the sparse system of linear equations which arises from finite-difference discretization of the Poisson equation. Knowing the optimal value of the relaxation parameter is crucial for fast convergence. In this manuscript, we present the optimal relaxation parameter for the discretized Poisson equation with mixed and different types of boundary conditions on a rectangular grid with unequal mesh sizes in $x$- and $y$-directions ($Δx \neq Δy$) which does not addressed in the literature. The central second-order and high-order compact (HOC) schemes are considered for the discretization and the optimal relaxation parameter is obtained for both the point and line implementation of the SOR method. Furthermore, the obtained optimal parameters are verified by numerical results.
