For a hex mesh, this means CFX has 24 integration points per control volume, as opposed to 6 integration points with Fluent.

Is this true, Can any explain to me how? Fluent has also formulation for gradient computation based on cell node as well, does it mean Fluent also use 24 integration points if cell node based scheme is turned on?
