Hello,

I've not had that much experience with some of the advection schemes in Telemac 3D, and in the manual I couldn't find anything which describes the orders. What are the order of accuracy for the advection schemes?

Many thanks

The main one I'm unfamiliar one is the Leo Postma scheme. The others are documented in their basic form in Hervouet (2007). Is there any documentation for Leo Postma?

Hello,

A priori you can always take the N scheme which is a bit less diffusive. The Leo Postma scheme considers fluxes along the segments in a prism, so 9 segments per prism, the N scheme considers also cross segments of the 3 rectangles of the prism, so 6 extra fluxes, and this is used to decrease the numerical diffusion.

With best regards,
