Abstract: Laminar‐viscous flow around a bend of radius twice the conduit diameter, preceded and succeeded by a straight conduit, is calculated via primitive variables for a Reynolds number of 100. The nature of the finite‐difference ...

Abstract: The two widely used methods of finite‐difference viscous‐flow calculation, the vorticity transport and primitive variable approaches, are applied to the analysis of flow through a plane short‐radius bend flanked by sections ...
