Vectorization of the Beam-Warming Scheme on the Cray-1 Computer.

Abstract

A three-dimensional version of the Beam-Warming scheme for solving the Navier-Stokes equations was implemented on the Cray-1 computer. The scheme is implicit and second-order accurate. The code is totally vectorized, allows for complicated geometries and includes a thin layer turbulence model. (Author)
