Abstract

Based on the normalized variable diagram, the weakness of the Gaskell and Lau's convective boundedness criterion (GL‐CBC) is revealed by numerical example. By careful consideration of the smoothness of the normalized variable variation pattern, more rigorous constraints on the interface value interpolation are found. A new CBC is thus proposed, whose feasibility and correctness are demonstrated by the inspection of ten existing bounded schemes and a numerical example.
