Projection and Quasi-Compressibility Methods for Solving the Incompressible Navier-Stokes Equations

Projection methods had been introduced in the late sixties by A. Chorin and R. Teman to decouple the computation of velocity and pressure within the time-stepping for solving the nonstationary Navier-Stokes equations. Despite the good performance of proje

Preface The numerical treatment of the evolutionary incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, which determine many practicaIly relevant fluid flows, is an area of considerable interest for industrial as weIl as scientific applications. Important for drawing furt her conclusions for the behavior of certain flows in diverse disciplines such as (astro-)physics, engineering, meteorology, oceanography, or biology is a reliable, robust and efficient numerical model. The goal of computing highly complex flows requires the development of sophisticated algorithms. In general, numerical schemes which do not cause high computational cost, often suffer from stability or reliability problems and vice versa. So, it demands a numerical and physical a-priori knowledge from the user in order to select the "best fitting algorithm" for a particular problem under consideration. The use of knowledge about physical phenomena appearing in a specific problem aIlows the relaxation of some robustness-conditions that otherwise need to be imposed on the numerical scheme in order to ensure reliability with respect to the converg
