CONTROL VOLUME FINITE-ELEMENT METHOD FOR NAVIER-STOKES EQUATIONS IN VORTEX-STREAMFUNCTION FORMULATION

Pages 125-145 | Received 26 Nov 1990, Accepted 12 Feb 1991, Published online: 16 May 2007
 

Abstract

The control volume-based finite-element method for solution of the Navier-Stokes equations in vortex-streamfunction formulation is presented. The exponential interpolation function suggested by Baliga and Patankar is used for the vortex, whereas the linear interpolation function refers to the streamfunction. The new feature of the method lies in the formulation of boundary conditions for the vortex on a solid surface.
