FLOW4
A Finite Element Code for Fluid Flow


FLOW4 is a FORTRAN90 program, using double precision arithmetic, which uses the finite element method to solve a problem involving two dimensional steady incompressible Navier Stokes flow.

FLOW4 uses the finite element method to solve for the steady state velocity and pressure of an incompressible fluid flowing in a two dimensional region.

FLOW4 writes a graphics dump file that can be read in and displayed by DISPLAY3.
