A numerical procedure to solve three-dimensional incompressible flows in arbitrary shapes is presented. The conservative form of the primitive-variable formulation of the time-dependent Navier-Stokes equations written for a general curvilinear coordiante system is adopted. The numerical scheme is based on an overlapping grid combined with opposed differencing for mass and pressure gradients. The pressure and the velocity components are stored at the same location: the center of the computational cell which is used for both mass and the momentum balance. The resulting scheme is stable and no oscillations in the velocity or pressure fields are detected. The method is applied to test cases of ducting and the results are compared with experimental and numerical data.

A method of numerically integrating the Navier-Stokes equations for certain three-dimensional incompressible flows is described. The technique is presented through application to the particular problem of describing thermal convection in a rotating annulus. The equations, in cylindrical polar co-ordinate form, are integrated with respect to time by a marching process, together with the solving of a Poisson equation for the pressure. A suitable form of the finite difference equations gives a computationally-stable long-term integration with reasonably faithful representation of the spatial and temporal characteristics of the flow.Trigonometric interpolation techniques provide accurate (discretely exact) solutions to the Poisson equation. By using an auxiliary algorithm for rapid evaluation of trigonometric transforms, the proportion of computation needed to solve the Poisson equation can be reduced to less than 25% of the total time needed to’ advance one time step. Computing on a UNIVAC 1108 machine, the flow can be advanced one time-step in 2 sec for a 14 × 14 × 14 grid upward to 96 sec for a 60 × 34 × 34 grid.As an example of the method, some features of a solution for steady wave flow in annulus convection are presented. The resemblance of this flow to the classical Eady wave is noted.
