Hi,
I have a question regarding non-uniform FVM staggered Cartesian grid. When the grid is non-uniform, I believe there are 2 ways to discretize the volume of the u/v grid, assuming the p grid is created. 1. The east/west faces of the u grid intersects the cell center of p. In that case, the distance of the east/west faces from the cell center of u will be different. the volume of u and p cells are different. 2. The west face of the u grid intersects the cell center of p but the east face does not. The volume of the u cell and p cell are equal, except shifted. In that case, the distance of the east/west faces from the cell center of u will be different. Are these 2 discretizations sound? Is there any preferences of one over another? Thanks |
