The value at the face in the second order upwind scheme is calculated using _____________(a) interpolation(b) extrapolation(c) weighted average(d) geometric meanI have been asked this question in my homework.Origin of the question is Convection-Diffusion Problems in portion Convection-Diffusion Problems of Computational Fluid Dynamics

Answer»

Correct choice is (B) extrapolation

To explain I would say: Second ORDER upwind scheme uses an upwind biased stencil. Therefore, it needs linear extrapolation to guess the VALUES at the faces instead of interpolation. This is where it is DIFFERENT from the central differencing scheme.
