Finite volume methods for laminar and turbulent flows using a penalty function approach. (English) Zbl 0806.76066
A penalty function, finite volume method is described for two-dimensional laminar and turbulent flows. Turbulence is modelled using the $$k- \varepsilon$$ model. The governing equations are discretized, and the resulting algebraic equations are solved using both sequential and coupled methods. The performance of these methods is gauged with reference to a tuned SIMPLE-C algorithm. Flows considered are a square cavity with a sliding top, a plane channel flow, a plane jet impingement and a plane channel with a sudden expansion.
