Basically, I'm comparably new to Haskell, which means lacking both knowledge of advanced principles, available libraries and, maybe, some syntax.

For educational purposes I hacked together a code implementing Stam-style fluid dynamics solver. For now the code is running in constant space and linear time, which is exactly what's needed. But feeling remains that code I wrote is rather ugly.

I have serious concerns about whether this code is possible to read at all, but hope that somebody could point out most obvious idiosyncrasies.

GHC 6.12.3 was used. Bang-patterns were added via -XBangPatterns.

My question is: how to change this code to be more comprehensible and idiomatic?

Get rid of all the cascading where clauses, e.g.

project x y = (setBoundary YHard x', setBoundary XHard y')
        where (x', y') = (createMatrix (indicies !! 1) (projectCellX x p), createMatrix (indicies !! 1) (projectCellY y p))
           where p = linearSolver (setBoundary Soft diverg) 1 4
                  where diverg = createMatrix (indicies !! 1) (computeDiv x y)
                             where computeDiv x y (i, j) = -0.5 * (x ! (i + 1, j) - x ! (i - 1, j) + y ! (i, j + 1) - y ! (i, j - 1)) / fromIntegral n

All of those can be in a single where block, and every declaration in a let or where block are in scope in the other declarations in that block.

Then I would run hlint on your code and take a look at what it suggests.
