node centered finite volume bookkeeping

April 24, 2007, 07:38

Dear all, could anyone advise me on the most efficient way to store all the information I need from the grid for a node centered FV scheme? I start from an unstructured (tetrahedra) grid and I need to calculate my finite volumes centered on the grid nodes with all the faces, the unit normals, the volume etc... Thank you

See Lohners book Applied CFD Techniques. Its gives lot of data structures for unstructured grids.
