| dc.description.abstract | A grid-embedding technique for the solution of two-dimensional incompressible flows governed by the Navier-Stokes equations is presented. A single coarse grid covers the whole domain, and local grid refinement B carried out in the regions of high gradients without changing the basic grid structure. A finite volume method with collocated primitive variables is employed, ensuring conservation at the interfaces of embedded grids, as well as global conservation. The method is applied to the simulation of a turbulent flow past a backward facing step, the flow over a square obstacle, and the flow in a sudden pipe expansion, and the predictions are compared with data published in the literature. They show that neither the convergence rate nor the stability of the method are affected by the presence of embedded grids. The grid-embedding technique yields significant savings in computing time to achieve the same accuracy obtained wing conventional grids. (C) 1997 by Elsevier Science Inc. | |
