Second order momentum equation
 
Hi All,

A paper I am reading states that they have best agreement with experimental results using "a second-order scheme for the momentum equation". Where can I check what I am using and how do I change it to second-order for the momentum equation?

Thank you!

For anyone in the future who is interested in this:

Case setup -> Solver parameters -> Convective flux scheme -> Momentum
If Convective flux scheme is Flux blending (default):
The flux blending fraction for FV scheme can be set between 0.5 and 1. The manual will explain more, but basically 0.5 is second-order central differencing and 1 is first-order upwind.
