Incompressible 2-D Navier-stokes equations for various values of Reynolds number with and without partial slip conditions are studied numerically. The Lid-Driven cavity (LDC) with uniform driven lid problem is employed with vorticity - Stream function (VSF) approach. The uniform mesh grid is used in finite difference approximation for solving the governing Navier-stokes equations and developed MATLAB code. The numerical method is validated with benchmark results. The present work is focused on the analysis of lid driven cavity flow of incompressible fluid with partial slip conditions (imposed on side walls of the cavity). The fluid flow patterns are studied with wide range of Reynolds number and slip parameters.

Abstract An over-relaxation procedure, that includes weighing factors, is applied to the steady, two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations in order to reduce the computational time. The benefits obtained from this strategy are illustrated by the problem of viscous flow in the entrance region of an unconstricted and a constricted channel. The describing equations are expressed in terms of the stream function and vorticity. The convergence domain for the Successive Over-Relaxation method and the optimum values of the accelerating parameters, which consist of the over-relaxation and weighting factors for both the stream function and vorticity, are discussed. Numerical solutions are obtained for Reynolds numbers ranging from 20 to 2000. The computer time is reduced by as much as a factor of six using the optimum values of the accelerating parameters.
