The time evolution of a curvilinear coordinate system can be identifiedwith an angular velocity matrix or vector, which contains the complete differentiationrule for all unit coordinate vectors of the curvilinear system, providinga concise method for their computations. When generalized the technique provides a powerful tool fordifferentiation, with respect to any parameter, of not only unit coordinate vectors but any vector that remains fixed in a general orthogonal curvilinear coordinate system. Several curvilinear systems, as well as the normal and tangentialcoordinate system are examined.PACS No.: 46.00

A model for two-dimensional flows over a cylinder at a plane boundary is developed. The model, based upon a (k-ε) turbulence closure, is formulated in a curvilinear coordinate system based upon frictionless flow. A length scale modification in areas of adverse pressure gradient and recirculating flow appears to be more realistic than the standard (k-ε) model. The main features of the predicted flow do not depend critically upon the details of the grid or model, which means that a well defined solution is obtained. The solution appears to be reasonable and validated to the extent that the data permits.
