channel


channel, a Fortran90 program which computes the time-independent flow of a viscous incompressible fluid in a 2D channel.

The strength of the flow at the inlet is determined by a parameter. The desired flow profile along a line downstream is given. The task is to determine the inflow parameter that generates a flow that minimizes the difference with the given profile data.
