Numerical computation of lid driven cavity using marker and cell (MAC) method

The numerical analysis of lid driven in a square cavity flow is discussed. The two dimensional, incompressible, time dependent Navier-Stokes equations are investigated. The governing equations which contains continuity and momentum equations are derived from conservation of mass and conservation of...
