Analytical solution for lid driven cavity
 

Hello,

I used google the whole day, but I can't find a numerical solution to a 2D LDC-Problem. I need it to compute a pressure field to test my very simple NS-solver.

Regards, Mike

Re: Analytical solution for lid driven cavity
 

Ghia did a good paper about this subject -it is an old paper. As well as more recent paper by Gupta. Also, the Wiki in here has this problem with a solution. The best way to check your NS-solver would be via Ghia's paper by checking the velocities at different Reynolds numbers v's Ghia's answers.

Hi, thanks for your answer!

You mean this one?

Ghia, Ghia, and Shin (1982), "High-Re solutions for incompressible flow using the Navier-Stokes equations and a multigrid method", Journal of Computational Physics, Vol. 48, pp. 387-411.

Has anybody got an idea where I can get this paper?

Regards, Mike

that is the paper. You will have to request it from somewhere. If you are in school or have a friend at a university or near a university library you might be able to find it.

Gupta's paper is nice too. His is only a year old.

Re: download from this
 

You can download one of the best one from the following link (contain re=1000-10000, and comparison with various publications)

Re: download from this
 

Gupta's paper is nice for the velocity graphs - which make for an easy comparison.

Re: download from this
 

Ghia's paper actually includes tabulated data. I am primarily to blame for the wiki article, and I have some data (from Fluent calculations) that I will be adding as soon as I get time (maybe next week). It is not quite the same as comparing to results in the literature, though.

give ur mail id
 

hello give ur mail id i will send the soft copy of ghias paper bye

Re: give ur mail id
 

Hi, I sent you my mail address.

Thanks for your help jj, Andrew, rt and jasond!

Re: download from this
 

That is a very nice paper. Much obliged.

diaw...

Re: please send me too
 

JJ, please send a copy to me, too: peterpendum@yahoo.com thank you, peter.

Re: please send me too
 

JJ, can you please send me a copy too : the.hurricane@hotmail.com And thanx in advance.

Re: please send me too
 

Ghia's paper is long. I still recommend Gupta's paper for verification of code.

JJ, can you please send me a copy of Ghia article too : przemyslaw.blasiak@pwr.wroc.pl And thanx in advance.

There are two related Matlab codes on the CFD-online wiki source code archive - educational (select wiki at the top of this page) which agree with Ghia et al and Botella & Peyret and Bruneau & Saad. You can run one of these codes to get computational results for comparison.

would anybody send me the Ghia's paper? m.r.hadian<at>gmail.com
