A simple question
heyy guys,
I have a very simple thing to ask... I am using 6th order central difference scheme....for a partial difference term, say it includes 12 points (6 right side of the point and 6 left of it). It is fine while we have sufficient number of points both the sides. However, when we approach a boundary, we are not having sufficient points on one of the sides....and thats why we take ghost-cells on other side of the boundary.... my question is: 1. how many ghost cells do we need to consider??? Well, I think it should be 6. If I am wrong, please suggest me something in this regard. 2. Lets say, only 2 ghost cells have been taken. It is always possible to achieve the same level of 6th order accuracy if we take 10 points on interior side along with the 2 ghost points outside (10+2 = 12). Is there anything wrong in it?? thanks in anticipation!! chandra shekhar |
