Hey


I am trying to understand the mesh convergence while using interFOAM. So what is have seen are two methods where tthe interface shape is compared after a certain time and the other option is to use Grid Convergence Index (GCI) like described in
http://www.grc.nasa.gov/WWW/wind/val.../spatconv.html


I am trying to figure out GCI method I got confused after looking at how it is used in literature. So I was hoping someone can help it me out
What I understood about GCI is that:

  1. Order of grid convergence p
p = \text{ln}\frac{f_3 - f_2}{f_2 - f_1}/Big{\text{ln}r}
