The discretization of the transient term using the finite volume approach is more like the spatial discretization of __________(a) the convection term(b) the diffusion term(c) the source term(d) the anti-diffusion termThe question was asked in a job interview.This intriguing question comes from Transient Flows in section Transient Flows of Computational Fluid Dynamics

Answer»

Right answer is (a) the convection TERM

To explain: The finite volume approach for the discretization of the RATE of change per unit time is more similar to the discretization of convection term while doing a spatial discretization. The only difference is that the FIRST case is based on time and the SECOND is based on spatial coordinates.
