## Finite volume solutions of convection-diffusion test problems.(English)Zbl 0797.76072

The cell-vertex formulation of the finite volume method has been developed and widely used to model inviscid flows in aerodynamics. The purpose of the present paper is two-fold: first we have applied this scheme to a well-known convection-diffusion model problem, involving flow round a $$180^ \circ$$ bend. Our second purpose is to gather together various approaches to the analysis of the corresponding one-dimensional problem and to draw attention to the supra-convergence phenomena enjoyed by the proposed methods.
