High order residual distribution conservative finite difference WENO schemes for convection-diffusion steady state problems on non-smooth meshes (Q886085)

The authors design a high order conservative residual distribution finite difference WENO (weighted essentially non-oscillatory) scheme on non-smooth Cartesian meshes for solving steady state solutions of convection-diffusion equations in one or two space dimensions. The residual distribution is designed based on weighing the effects of convection and diffusion, and principles are obeyed to ensure high order accuracy at steady state. A Lax-Wendroff type theorem is proved for convergence towards weak solutions in one and two dimensions with additional assumptions. Numerical experiments are performed to demonstrate the accuracy and good resolution of the proposed method.
