Abstract: | A discrete singular convolution (DSC) solver is developed for treating incompressible flows. Three different two‐dimensional benchmark problems, the Taylor problem, the driven cavity flow, and a periodic shear layer flow, are utilized to test the accuracy, to explore the reliability and to demonstrate the efficiency of the present approach. Solution of extremely high accuracy is attained in the analytically solvable Taylor problem. The results of treating the other problems are in excellent agreement with those in the literature.
