✦ Synopsis

A new finite element technique is developed for predicting the velocity and the pressure in transient incompressible viscous fluid flows at high Reynolds numbers. The new method is based on the generalized and simplified marker-and-cell met hod (GSMAC) and has two characteristics: one is an application of the Bernoulli function and the implicit pressure solution algorithm to the explicit fractional time step method, the other is a high-order flux calculation to prevent the pressure field from oscillating. Two examples, driven cavity flows at high Reynolds numbers and vortex shedding behind a circular cylinder, are presented. Satisfactory agreement with experiment is demonstrated. KEY WORDS GSMAC finite element method Incompressible Navier-Stokes solver High Reynolds number Driven cavity flow Vortex shedding behind a circular cylinder

In this paper an explicit Lagrangian approach to advective and diffusive term treatment has been derived to improve the stability and to reduce the artificial diffusion of a finite difference scheme for convection-diffusion equations. This concept is then applied to discretize the convective and vis
