Finite-element analysis of incompressible laminar and turbulent flow with heat transfer
Abstract
The finite-element method is investigated as a means of simulating incompressible, laminar, and turbulent flow past a confined backward facing step. Flow-field and heat-transfer results are compared with available experimental data and other computational results.
