When numerically computing high Reynolds number cavity flow, it is known that by formulating the Navier-Stokes equations using the stream function and vorticity as unknown functions, it is possible to reproduce finer flow structures. Although numerical computations applying methods such as the finite difference method are well known, to the best of our knowledge, there are no examples of applying particle-based methods like the SPH method to this problem. Therefore, we applied the SPH method to the Navier-Stokes equations, formulated with the stream function and vorticity as unknown functions, and conducted numerical computations of high Reynolds number cavity flow. The results confirmed the reproduction of small vortices and demonstrated the effectiveness of the scheme using the stream function and vorticity.
