Review text

The purpose of this note is to demonstrate that for channel and for flat plate boundary layer flow the Green's functions method may be implemented with only four instead of six Poisson solvers per time step. The savings come from the observation that two of six Poisson equations may be solved analytically in terms of elementary functions. The implementation of the method is straightforward and existing pseudo-spectral computer codes may be easily modified bringing savings in the computer time. The modifications are described for both a channel and a boundary layer code.
