The problem
Confirming that a kinetic-energy decay pipeline matches the canonical Taylor-Green law is a standard CFD sanity check that is awkward to set up ad hoc.
The local-first solution
This plugin drives the real wasm engine in the browser to evaluate the analytic Taylor-Green solution on a discrete grid and verifies the resulting kinetic-energy decay against the published closed-form law E(t) = E0 exp(-4 nu t).
What it does
Evaluation of the analytic Taylor-Green velocity field on a discrete grid
Kinetic-energy sampling over a chosen number of time snapshots
Fit of the observed decay rate compared to the analytic rate 4 nu
Honest worst-case residual mapped to the trust verdict
Adjustable viscosity, amplitude, grid size, and final time
Honest scope
This is a verification harness, NOT an independent Navier-Stokes solver: it confirms the closed-form decay law and the grid-evaluation pipeline but does not integrate the incompressible NS equations. A true NS evolution with nonlinear cascade is the HPC step this bridges to, not a replacement, and EXACT is never claimed for a discrete-grid sampling.
