Why a parabolic profile is not used to model the variation of Φ?(a) Accuracy comes at the cost of computation(b) Exact results(c) Unphysical results(d) Difficult to useI got this question during an online interview.The origin of the question is Diffusion Problem in portion Diffusion Problem of Computational Fluid Dynamics

Answer»

The correct ANSWER is (c) Unphysical results

Explanation: Consider a PARABOLIC (second-order) PROFILE is used to find the value of a flow VARIABLE at the face in between two centroids. It will lead to a value HIGHER or lower than the values at the centroids which will be unphysical.
