Abstract

A general second-order fractional-step method is presented for simulation of unsteady single-fluid and multiple-fluid flows. It includes four-step and three-step projection methods. Several existing projection methods can be acquired through this general formula. The SIMPLE method is also a special case of this general fractional-step method. The relationship between the SIMPLE method and the projection method is discussed based on this formula.
