A result of existence and uniqueness for a cavity driven flow. Analytical expression of the solution

Abstract

In this work a result of existence and uniqueness for a plane cavity driven steady flow is deduced using an analytical method for the resolution of a linear partial differential problem on a triangular domain. The solution admits a symbolic expression based on integration over the domain. Some examples of flow are computed and graphed. In particular, it is shown a realistic example of a shear-forced flow with two eddies, usually computed only by numerical methods. The mathematical techniques used for the demonstration of the main result are elementary.
