Notes:
In order to solve the Navier-Stokes equations by spectral methods, we develop an algorithm using a staggered grid to compute the pressure. On this grid, an iterative process based on an artificial compressibility matrix associates the pressure with the continuity equation. This method is very accurate and avoids naturally most of the effects of parasite modes appearing in classical spectral methods with a velocity - pressure formulation.
