Books

Atul Sharma and V. Eswaran, A Finite Volume Method, Chapter12, pp. 445-482: Computational Fluid Flow and Heat Transfer, Edited by K. Muralidhar and T. Sundararajan, Narosa Publishing  House, New Delhi, India and Alpha Science, UK, 2nd Revised Edition, 2003.                        

* Back Cover of the book mentions:- In the second edition of this well known textbook, a full chapter on the "finite volume method" has been added - a technique that combines the benefits of finite  differences and finite elements. Specifically, it is applicable to three dimensional unsteady flows in complex geometries. It uses structured collocated grids, the grids themselves can be orthogonal or non-orthogonal. Extension of the finite volume technique to compressible fluids as well as turbulent flows is possible.
