Tritok, a BEM based viscous flow solver

Tritok simulates flow and heat transfer of an incompresible viscous fluid in 3D. Velocity-vorticity formulation of Navier-Stokes eqautions is solved by the Boundary Element Method. It was written by Jure Ravnik, University of Maribor, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Smetanova 17, SI-2000, Maribor, Slovenia

 

  

Numerical aspects of the algorithm are explained in the following papers:
