The Crank-Nicolson scheme is ________(a) fourth-order accurate(b) third-order accurate(c) second-order accurate(d) first-order accurateThis question was posed to me in an interview for internship.Enquiry is from Transient Flows in division Transient Flows of Computational Fluid Dynamics

Answer» CORRECT option is (C) second-order accurate

Explanation: The order of accuracy of the Crank-Nicolson SCHEME is two. It has better accuracy than the forward Euler scheme. This can be OBTAINED using the Taylor series expansion of the temporal DERIVATIVE.
