Abstract

A high resolution and bounded convection scheme is proposed for the simulation of steady incompressible flows with finite volume method. The scheme is formulated on a nonuniform, nonorthogonal grid so as to be applicable to the simulation of practical engineering problems. The relative performance of the scheme is evaluated through applications to the test problems. The results of numerical experiments show that the proposed scheme yields similiar solutions which are as good as those obtained with the QUICK scheme, but without exhibiting the physically unrealistic overshoots and undershoots.
