I run the code with volume force (0,-1) and isoviscosity. The expected result is Vx = Vy = 0 everywhere, and linearly decreasing pressure (from to to bottom). </div>

</div>For variable viscosity, it must be formulated as in the example:<br>
<br>
\nabla\cdot (\nu D U) - \nabla P = 0<br>
<br>
where D U = (\nabla U + (\nabla U)^T)/2<br>

<br>
</div>Yes.<br>
<div><br>

<br>
</div>Yes, though they are set to be uniform.<br>
<div><br>
> 4. How can I enforce noslip BC, and where should I plug in volume force?<br>
<br>
</div>Enforce the Dirichlet condition for the entire node.<br>
