In this present work, a computational code is developed to solve a
laminar two-dimensional lid driven cavity flow with inclined side wall. SIMPLE
(Semi-Implicit Method for Pressure-Linked Equation) algorithm based on finite
volume method on staggered grid has been used. Differed QUICK (Quadratic Upstream
Interpolation for Convective Kinematics) schemes have been implemented for all
calculations. The results are presented for inclination angle β = 30°, 45° and Re = 100, 1000 and are
compared with Demirdzic et al. benchmark solution. By comparison, it is found that the results are in very
good agreement with the benchmark solution for Re = 100. But the results are
close to the benchmark solution for Re = 1000.
