Abstract
The Fourth-Order Newton (FON) method, employing a direct linear biharmonic solver, is used to solve the finite-difference formulation of the steady, incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in an iterative Newton scheme. Accurate solutions to a number of problems for small and large Reynols numbers are obtained in a few iterations, employing strained grids. Special attention is paid to the problem of separation caused by non-parallel entrance flow.
