Review text

A grid-embedding technique for the solution of two-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations is presented. A single coarse grid covers the whole domain, and local grid refinement is carried out in the regions of high gradients without changing the basic grid structure. A finite volume method with collocated primitive variables is employed, ensuring conservation at the interfaces of embedded grids, as well as global conservation. The method is applied to the simulation of a turbulent flow past a backward facing step, the flow over a square obstacle, and the flow in a sudden pipe expansion.
