Abstract

The additional complexity of the Navier–Stokes equations and special features for incompressible flows are considered in this chapter and the next; here we cover basic issues, the features of the equations, and the methods of solution. The staggered and collocated variable arrangements, the pressure equation, and the pressure-velocity coupling for incompressible flows using the fractional-step and SIMPLE algorithms are described in detail. Other approaches (the PISO algorithm, streamfunction-vorticity, and artificial compressibility) are also briefly described. The initial and boundary conditions for the Navier–Stokes equations and their implementation on Cartesian grids are also covered.

Footnotes
1
In flows where the density of the fluid varies with height in a gravitational field, the flow is said to be stratified, and the flow may carry heavy fluid up or light fluid down so that it now has a density different from its surroundings; the fluid then has not only kinetic energy, but also energy as a result of its position, called potential energy. The result is buoyant forces that are touched on later in this chapter and are very important in both meteorology and oceanography.

In this case the second-order extrapolation \(p^{n+1}=(3/2) p^{n+1/2}-(1/2) p^{n-1/2}\) is used.

Coupled (or monolithic) solvers are also available and most commercial packages now offer them; discussion of solver alternatives can be found in the code documentation or in the literature, e.g., Heil et al. (2008) or Malinen (2012). See also Chap. 11 for a brief description of one such method.

This relation was first derived by Raithby and Schneider (1979) and later re-discovered by Perić (1985) using different arguments.
