Numerical Method

Within the COOLFluiD project, a numerical method is defined as a general methodology to perform a specific task.

According to which task they perform, Numerical Methods are divided into different types:

• Space discretization methods
• Convergence and iterative methods, possibly in time or pseudo-time
• Error estimation methods
• Mesh creation methods, which may generate or simply load meshes
• Mesh adaptation methods
• Linear system solvers
• Pre and post processing methods
• Coupling method for MultiPhysics
