Hi CFD guys,
I developed a collocated 2D CVFEM code for unstructured grids and I want to get the streamfunction field from the velocity field I get when I solve the momentum and continuity equations. How can I do this??? Thanks in advance... |

a choice: you can compute the vorticity field rot V then solving for Div Grad Psi = rot V

when you know the velocity on the boundary then you know also the Psi assignment....
