Coudière, Yves; Vila, Jean-Paul; Villedieu, Philippe Convergence rate of a finite volume scheme for a two dimensional convection-diffusion problem. (English) Zbl 0937.65116 M2AN, Math. Model. Numer. Anal. 33, No. 3, 493-516 (1999). The authors propose a class of cell centered finite volume schemes on general unstructured meshes in order to solve a linear convection-diffusion problem. An upwind scheme and the so-called diamond cell method are used, respectively, to treat the convective and diffusive terms. An error estimate of order \(h\) on a mesh of quadrangles is the main result of the paper.
