This paper presents a velocity/pressure/function-of-transformation formulation to simulate two- and three-dimensional flows by a finite element Galerkin technique associated to stream-tube analysis. The latter method involves an unknown transformation. Applications are given for plane and...

The present paper examines the stream-tube method in two- and three-dimensional duct flows. The analysis uses the concept of stream-tubes in a mapped computational domain of the physical domain, where streamlines are parallel and straight. The primary unknown of the problem includes the...
