3D driven cavity reference
 

Ciao! I am in search of reference computations for the 3D incompressible Navier-Stokes eqs in a driven cavity (unit cube with u = 1 on one face and u = v = w = 0 otherwise). Thank you in advance!

Hi,

I hope this paper can be useful:

Ku H.C., Hirsh R.C. Taylor T.D. Pseudospectral Method for solution of the Three Dimensional Incompressible Navier-Stokes Equations // J. Comp. Phys. - 1987. - V.70. - pp.439 - 462.

Regards,

Dmitriy

There has been a GAMM workshop on this problem look at the book of :

Deville M., T.H.Le, Y. Morchoisne: Numerical simulation of 3D incompressible unsteady flow Notes on Numerical Fluide Mechanics Vo l36, Vieweg 1992

there you get experimental data as well as reference simulations

Look for papers by Prasad and Koseff (stanford university)

Prasad's Phd. is on driven cavity problem.

Yan Zang'S Phd. (again from Stanford) contains a chapter on the simulation of the 3-D driven cavity

paper by Koseff, J.R. et al (1983) in proceedings of 3rd international conference on numerical methods in laminar and turbulent flows pp 564-581
