Abstract

Application of the immersed boundary method for solving the Navier-Stokes equations and its implementation are considered. The following problems are solved numerically: flow around a circular cylinder, flow over a backward facing step at a channel inlet, flow around two circular cylinders in tandem, and three-dimensional flow around a stationary sphere. The results thus obtained are compared with those obtained using curvilinear grids.
