Abstract

Numerical simulation of two-dimensional reversed stagnation-point flow will be studied by solving the full Navier-Stokes equations with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software of STAR-CD and results are compared with those obtained from the similarity asymptotic solution. Velocity distribution in inner region which is near the wall as well as outer region which is away form the wall is investigated for four different aspect ratios.
