SUMMARYThis paper uses examples with exact solutions to demonstrate that boundary Bows with 8-node finite elements are more cost effectively calculated by extrapolation from the Barlow points than by direct sampling at the boundary. The boundary flows are used to calculate the mass balance, and the use of the error in this as a measure of solution accuracy is discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
