Taylor-Green Vortex

A periodic vortex lattice decays under viscosity. Colour is vorticity magnitude; the solver is the same BDF2 Navier-Stokes path gated against the analytic Taylor-Green solution.

Incompressible Navier–Stokes with BDF2 stepping and a block Schur preconditioner — the periodic box keeps the focus on the time scheme and the viscous decay rate, which QA checks against the closed-form Taylor–Green answer. Regenerate the film with just website-demos taylor-green.
