Abstract

Pressure based solver (PBS) is an algorithm to solve the pressure equation which is derived from the continuity and momentum equations. In this paper, various interpolation schemes are used to simulate the velocity behaviour of viscous incompressible fluids on standard lid driven cavity test case. The simulation is done by varying the Reynolds number and the results are validated with artificial compressibility method (ACM).
