Abstract

The vorticity-streamfunction formulation is implemented on the control-volume-based finite-element method (CVFEM). The key contribution of this work is the formulation of the wall vorticity, which allows successful modeling of fluid flow problems with irregular boundaries. The resulting algorithm exhibits the desirable qualities of consistency, accuracy, and stability.
