Hi all

I'm testing discritisation schemes for advection term, but struggling. Some how, second upwind and third upwind method diverges. I am using identical grid arrangement and courant conditions for all, and others ( quick, first upwind, kk-scheme) worked.

My reference says, higher order scheme gives smaller numerical diffusion but from what I can see from the result, it's opposite. The discritised equations were worked out from the expression on wikipedia and confirmed the reference as well.

Can any body point me to the right direction.

Here is my code and the result.

Best Regards
