摘要

The time discretization of a very high-order finite volume method may give rise to new numerical difficulties resulting into accuracy degradations. Indeed, for the simple one-dimensional unstationary convection-diffusion equation for instance, a conflicting situation between the source term time discretization and the boundary conditions may arise when using the standard Runge-Kutta method. We propose an alternative procedure by extending the Butcher Tableau to overcome this specific difficulty and achieve fourth-, sixth- or eighth-order of accuracy schemes in space and time. To this end, a new finite volume method is designed based on specific polynomial reconstructions for the space discretization, while we use the Extended Butcher Tableau to perform the time discretization. A large set of numerical tests has been carried out to validate the proposed method.
