TITLE : 2D DIAGONAL CONVECTION OF A SCALAR STEP PROFILE
BY : CHAM Development Team - M R Malin
VKI, Belgium - N P Waterson
FOR : Validation of Convection Discretisation Schemes
PROBLEM CONSIDERED:
- This case concerns the pure convection of a step profile of a scalar
by a uniform flow field inclined at 45 degrees.
- This case is a widely-used test problem for assessing the accuracy of
various numerical methods, as it involves convective dominance,
significant streamline-grid skewness and steep gradients of transported
variables.
