Governing equation

\frac{\partial u}{\partial t} + (u \cdot \nabla) u = - \frac{\nabla p}{ρ} + ν \nabla^{2} u + f, \nabla \cdot u = 0, ∣ f ∣ = 30

Reading this result: At moderate force (30) the incompressible constraint is visible: each step the projection removes divergence, so fluid pushed up the center must fold back down along the sides.
