A finite element scheme based on the Petrov-Galerkin weak formulation using exponential weighting functions for solving accurately, and in a stable manner, the flow field of an incompressible viscous fluid has been proposed in our previous works. In this paper, we present the Petrov-Galerkin finite element scheme for turbulent flow field. The incompressible Navier-Stokes equations are numerically integrated in time by using a fractional step strategy with second-order accurate Adams-Bashforth explicit differencing for both convection and diffusion terms. Numerical results obtained herein are compared through turbulent flow around a square cylinder at Re = 22,000 with the experimental data and other existing numerical ones.
