finitevolume-python's Issues

navier-stokes

Hi,

Thanks for the very neat blog post and code, it is very helpful.
I am definitely not an expert in finite volumes, but I was wondering if there was anything preventing from extending the present collocated finite volume formulation to the navier-stokes equations ? I see on the internet that most formulations for NS are staggered, or use specific time-stepping techniques when they are not.

Best,
