    A tri-tree method for generating finite element grids in two and three dimensions is developed. The method is based on a new tree search structure. The search tree is built upon triangles in two dimensions and tetrahedra in three dimensions. The density of elements can be varied throughout the computational domain. A coupled node fill-in ILU preconditioner for implicit and iterative solution of the Navier-Stokes equations has been designed. The properties of preconditioner, which is based on new fill-in rules, permit fill-in and preconditioning of the pressure in the equation system. The tri-tree grid generation algorithm includes local refinements. The spatial location of refinements are based on the solution calculated for the previous grid.
