In this study a pure vector potential method (PVPM) for a three dimensional, unsteady, incompressible flow is proposed. A simplified version for a two dimensional problem is described in detail, and a method to prescribe appropriate boundary conditions is also presented. The resulting numerical algorithm is applied to the cavity flow driven by an impulsively started wall and also to the Stokes' first problem. Some important unsteady/steady features are captured for these two flows, and quantitative agreements of flow variables with available reference database are good.
