AB - <p style="text-align: justify;">A new Particle Vortex Method, called Diffused Vortex Hydrodynamics
(DVH), is presented in this paper. The DVH is a meshless method characterized by the
use of a regular distribution of points close to a solid surface to perform the vorticity
diffusion process in the boundary layer regions. This redistribution avoids excessive
clustering or rarefaction of the vortex particles providing robustness and high accuracy
to the method. The generation of the regular distribution of points is performed
through a packing algorithm which is embedded in the solver. The packing algorithm
collocates points regularly around body of arbitrary shape allowing an exact enforcement
on the solid surfaces of the no-slip boundary condition. The present method
is tested and validated on different problems of increasing complexities up to flows
with Reynolds number equal to 100,000 (without using any subgrid-scale turbulence
model).</p>
