Marching grid generation using parabolic partial differential equationsThe feasibility of using parabolic partial differential equations for grid generation is examined. Source terms in the form of a linear interpolation between the current grid and the outer boundary are used in generating a grid for a two-dimensional airfoil flow. Grid generation equations are derived by assuming that grid spacings are locally nonuniform on the computational domain. The grid spacing control method is described in detail, and the local orthogonality of the grid lines is discussed. An O-mesh and an H-mesh generated by the described method are shown.
