Abstract

The governing equations which describe the flow separation past an obstruction are solved numerically using either the Finite Element Method or the Finite Difference Method. An experimental separation pattern is obtained using a pitot-tube measurement. The computed separation patterns by FEM and FDM models show good agreement with the experimental pattern.
