An iterative method for the navier-stokes equations in the problem of a viscous incompressible fluid flow around a thin plate
In this paper, the problem on a viscous fluid flow around a thin plate is considered using the exact Navier-Stokes equations. An iterative method is proposed for small velocity perturbations with respect to main flow velocities. At each iterative step, an integral equation is solved for a function of the viscous friction over the plate. The collocation method is used at each iteration step to reduce an integral equation to a system of linear algebraic equations, and the shooting method based on the classical fourth-order Runge-Kutta technique is applied. The solution obtained at each iteration step is compared with the Harrison-Filon solution at low Reynolds numbers, with the classical Blasius solution, and with the results computed using the direct numerical finite-volume method in the ANSYS CFX software for moderate and high Reynolds numbers. The proposed iterative method converges in a few steps. Its accuracy is rather high for small and large Reynolds number, while the error can reach 15% for moderate values.
