Abstract

In this paper, parallel computation of incompressible flows driven by moving multiple obstacles using a new moving embedded-grid method is presented. Moving embedded-grid method is the method such that the embedded grid can move arbitrarily in a main grid covering whole of the flow field. The feature of the method is to satisfy geometric and physical conservation laws. The method is applied to a flow where three square cylinders move in the stationary fluid, and computed using parallel machines.
