Abstract

We have developed a new monotone cell-centered finite volume method for the discretization of diffusion equations on conformal polyhedral meshes. The proposed method is based on a nonlinear two-point flux approximation. For problems with smooth diffusion tensors and Dirichlet boundary conditions the method is interpolation-free. An adaptive interpolation is applied on faces where diffusion tensor jumps or Neumann boundary conditions are imposed. The interpolation is based on physical relationships such as continuity of the diffusion flux. The second-order convergence rate is verified with numerical experiments.
