Vortex-Blob Simulation Of Two-Dimensional Flows

Abstract

Software package includes two programs: KPD12 and KPD12P. Both programs use vortex-blob method to simulate flow around solid bodies. KPD12 treats unbounded domain, while KPD12P treats domain having periodicity in one direction. Main advantage, ability to handle situations involving arbitrary shapes, including multiple bodies. User supplies only points on solid boundaries; no grid. Source code in Cray FORTRAN.
