The authors extend earlier work [for example in Numer. Math. 82, No. 1, 91-116 (1999; Zbl 0930.65118)] on the convergence of finite volume solution methods for second order partial differential equations. The current work adds convergence of the solution gradient to earlier proofs of convergence of the solution alone. NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEThe particular finite volume method under study requires an ``admissible mesh that depends on the line connecting the centers of adjacent mesh cells being perpendicular to the common edge of the cells. Triangular and Voronoi meshes are examples of admissible meshes. Degrees of freedom of the solution are then defined not only for mesh cells, but also for mesh edges. The mesh edge degrees of freedom are then used to define the gradient of the solution. For a mesh cell \(K\) with one edge \(\sigma\), the solution is regarded as constant over \(K\), but its gradient is regarded as being defined in terms of functions \(\phi\) that satisfy a Neumann problem with normal derivative equal to 1 on \(\sigma\) and zero on the other edges of \(K\). The properties of \(\phi\) play a crucial role in the convergence estimates. NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINETwo numerical examples are presented for the Dirichlet problem for Poisson's equation. The first involves a spatially variable density and is posed on a square two-dimensional domain, and the second involves Poisson's equation on an ``\(L\)-shaped domain.
