New cell-vertex reconstruction for finite volume scheme: Application to the convection-diffusion-reaction equation

摘要

The design of efficient, simple, and easy to code, second-order finite volume methods is an important challenge to solve practical problems in physics and in engineering where complex and very accurate techniques are not required. We propose an extension of the original Frink's approach based on a cell-to-vertex interpolation to compute vertex values with neighbour cell values. We also design a specific scheme which enables to use whatever collocation point we want in the cells to overcome the mass centre point restrictive choice. The method is proposed for two- and three-dimensional geometries and a second-order extension time-discretization is given for time-dependent equation. A large number of numerical simulations are carried out to highlight the performance of the new method.
