A Finite-Element Solution of the Navier-Stokes Equations for Two-Dimensional and Axis-Symmetric Flow

The finite element formulation of the Navier-Stokes equations is derived for two-dimensional and axis-symmetric flow. The simple triangular, T6, isoparametric element is used. The velocities are interpolated by quadratic polynomials and the pressure is interpolated by linear polynomials. The non-lin...
