Is C0 the upstream cell in Fluent?
 
C0 and C1 are telled by the face normal vector. But upstream/downstream are telled by the normal face velocity. So they are different. Am I right?

If I am right, how does Fluent tell which is the upstream cell to calculate the convective item using upwind scheme (flux comes in or goes out)?

Thanks
