Abstract
We describe and demonstrate both our newest projection method (fully i mplicit) for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations via the finite element method and our newest turbulence model-a somewhat sophisticat ed nonlinear (cubic) eddy viscosity model that does not employ wall fu nctions or normal distances to walls - the combination providing a met hod and a model that is each applicable in arbitrary geometry. We demo nstrate both via a flow simulation past an automobile-like body at a R eynolds number of 4.3 million.
