Hi,
I am trying to benchmark my higher order DG code for viscous problems. I devised a new method of representing the viscous flux at cell interface and am required to establish the order of accuracy of the proposed scheme. I took the standard test case of isentropic vortex evolution problem as the initial setup and am trying to estimate the error as the difference between the solutions (at t=5) of the current grid and the refined grid. For example, if I have grids G1, G2, G3, the error for G1 would be |Q1-Q2| where Q is the solution on the grid. The error for G2 would be |Q2-Q3| and so on. Is this the right way to estimate the grid convergence if we do not know the analytical solution? When I do the above test, I get acceptable grid convergence results. I am just wondering if it is the right way to do... Shyam |

Not many people care about estimating the constant on the truncation error though. |
