NaSt2D

This is a computer code for the solution of the 2D, incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Basic features are

  • Chorin’s projection method for momentum/continuity decoupling
  • Staggered mesh for spatial discretization
  • Explicit Euler scheme for time discretization
  • Blending of first order upwind and second order central discretization for convective terms
  • SOR iterative solver
  • Can handle very complicated geometries by a simple cell decomposition/enumeration technique
