- The flow around objects in arbitrary motion is resolved in CFD using moving grid methods. It is problematic to investigate boundary layer behaviour with moving grid methods due to complexity and computational cost. This paper presents the results and validation of a non-inertial implementation of the Navier-Stokes equations in an open source platform. The method resolves the flow subjected to prescribed motion on a stationary grid. It is equivalent to moving mesh methods, but without the overhead. The boundary layer can be more accurately resolved as the errors that arise from remeshing and remapping is eliminated.
