Abstract
The streamlines, isobares and velocities have been calculated for laminar flow over a step in a plane channel. The method used based on the calculation of the stream- and vorticityfunction. Good convergence of the iterating method was received using upwind-differences. The lower order of accuracy was accepted in order to obtain stable solutions in cases with large separated regions. As exit-condition it was assumed, that there is no change in the functions in axial directions.
