6/35. The Past at IC MED:More about 2D paraboliccomputer programsLubbock,TexasOct 18 2013Applications of CFDA second computer program, GENMIX, applied thesame method to more general 2D parabolic flows, e.g.wakes, plumes, wall jets for film-cooling, flames, etc.A major use was for systematic validation studies ofthe then-emerging two-equation turbulence models.It too was published as a book, with coding;and therefore used by non-IC researchers.However the IC group had already developedand published a stream-function~vorticityprogram for simulating 2D elliptic flows.We sought therefore a method to escape its restrictionsviz. to two dimensions; and to uniform density.
