Abstract
This paper describes and demonstrates the application of a numerical s cheme to predict three-dimensional laminar flows through complex geome tries using body fitted co-cordinate (BFC) system. Two cases studied i nclude two-dimensional flow in a square cavity and three-dimensional f low in a 90-degrees bend of square cross-section. Discretization of th e governing equations and the scheme employed are explained. The predi cted results are compared with available experimental data.
