A new finite-difference method is presented for the numerical solution of the Navier-Stokes equations of motion of a viscous incompressible fluid in two (or three) dimensions and in the primitive-variable formulation. Introducing two auxiliary functions of the coordinate system and considering the form of the initial equation on lines passing through the nodal point (x0, y0) and parallel to the coordinate axes, we can separate it into two parts that are finally reduced to ordinary differential equations, one for each dimension. The final system of linear equations in n-unknowns is solved by an iterative technique and the method converges rapidly giving satisfactory results. For the pressure variable we consider a pressure Poisson equation with suitable Neumann boundary conditions. Numerical results, confirming the accuracy of the proposed method, are presented for configurations of interest, like Poiseuille flow and the flow between two parallel plates with step under the presence of a pressure gradient.
