✦ Synopsis

The stability of a finite difference discretization of the time-dependent incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in velocity-pressure formulation is studied. In paticular, we compare the stability for different pressure boundary conditions in a semiimplicit time-integration scheme. where only the viscous term is treated implicitly. The stability is studied in three different ways: by a normal-mode analysis, by numerical computation of the amplification factors, and by direct numerical simulation of the governing equations. All three approaches identify the same pressure boundary condition as the best alternative. This condition implicitly enforces the normal derivative of the divergence to be zero on the boundary by coupling the normal derivative of the pressure to the normal component of the curl of the vorticity. Using this boundary condition, we demonstrate that the time-step is determined only by the convective term.

## Abstract In this paper, we consider incompressible viscous fluid flows with slip boundary conditions. We first prove the existence of solutions of the unsteady Navier–Stokes equations in __n__‐spacial dimensions. Then, we investigate the stability, uniqueness and regularity of solutions in two a

In this paper we investigate new boundary conditions for the incompressible, timèe-dependent Navier-Stokes equation. Especially inflow and outflow conditions are considered. The equations are linearized around a constant flow, so that we can use Laplace-Fourier technique to investigate the strength

The compressible Navier-Stokes equations belong to the class of incompletely parabolic systems. The general method developed by Laurence Halpern for deriving artificial boundary conditions for incompletely parabolic perturbations of hyperbolic systems is applied to the linearized compressible Navier
