✦ Synopsis
This paper introduces a ¯ux-limited scheme FLOCV for the overlapping control volume (OCV) approach to 2D steady and unsteady convection±diffusion problems on structured non-orthogonal grids. FLOCV switches from second-to ®rst-order interpolation in the presence of extrema. Smooth switching between the two is ensured by weighted average second-and ®rst-order upwind differencing, with the weights being dynamically determined. Five convective test problems are solved using this scheme and results are compared with known analytical solutions. It is found that FLOCV approximately retains second-order accuracy of the base discretization scheme on uniform grids and smooth non-uniform orthogonal grids. It is also found effective in removing oscillations for problems with discontinuities on both orthogonal and non-orthogonal grids, with little degradation of accuracy.

## Abstract We propose and analyze in this paper a numerical scheme for nonlinear degenerate parabolic convection–diffusion–reaction equations in two or three space dimensions. We discretize the time evolution, convection, reaction, and source terms on a given grid, which can be nonmatching and can
