A global method of generalized differential quadrature is applied to solve the two‐dimensional incompressible Navier‐Stokes equations in the vorticity‐stream‐function formulation. Numerical results for the flow past a circular cylinder were obtained using just a few grid points. A good agreement is found with the experimental data.
