abstract = {<p style="text-align: justify;">The non-dimensional form of Navier-Stokes equations for two dimensional mixing layer flow are solved using direct numerical simulation. The
governing equations are discretized in streamwise and cross stream direction using a sixth order compact finite difference scheme and a mapped compact finite
difference method, respectively. A tangent mapping of $y =\beta\tan(\pi \zeta/2)$ is used
to relate the physical domain of $y$ to the computational domain of $\zeta$. The third
order Runge-Kutta method is used for the time-advancement purpose. The
convective outflow boundary condition is employed to create a non-reflective
type boundary condition at the outlet. An inviscid (Stuart flow) and a completely viscous solution of the Navier-Stokes equations are used for verification
of the numerical simulation. The numerical results show a very good accuracy
and agreement with the exact solution of the Navier-Stokes equation. The results of mixing layer simulation also indicate that the time traces of the velocity
components are periodic. Results in self-similar coordinate were also investigated which indicate that the time-averaged statistics for velocity, vorticity,
turbulence intensities and Reynolds stress distribution tend to collapse on top
of each other at the flow downstream locations.</p>},
