We present a new conservative Cartesian grid embedded boundary method for the
solution of the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations in a time-dependent domain.
It is a Godunov-projection fractional step scheme in which hyperbolic advection and
a variety of implicit and explicit Helmholtz operations are performed on
time-stationary domains. The transfer of data from one fixed domain to
another uses third-order interpolation. The method is second order accurate in
and first
order in
.
The algorithm is verified on flow geometries with prescribed boundary motion.
