The SUPG stabilization technique is employed for the for- mulation of momentum equations. Using the penalty function method, the continuity equation is simplified and the pres- sure of the momentum equations is eliminated.

It is shown that steady flow simulations are computable up to Re = 27500, and the present results agree well with previous solutions.
