文摘The finite element method is employed to simulate incompressible viscous unsteady flow in two dimensional channel with a sudden expansion. The streamline patterns and the velocity vector plots are presented at different expansion ratios and at different moment. The results obtained have certain significance to analyze the formation of eddies and energy loss in a sudden expansion channel flow and other complex channel flow.
