Abstract
Throughout the past decade, interest has grown in the use of boundary-fitted coordinate systems in computational fluid dynamics. Boundary-fitted systems give finite-difference numerical schemes the capability of modelling curved or irregular flow boundaries exactly and therefore offer a computationally efficient technique for solving hydraulic flow phenomena in complex geometries. This paper describes a numerical scheme for the solution of the shallow water equations on arbitrary non-orthogonal grids and presents results for the case of jet-forced flow in a flat bottomed circular reservoir.
