Similarly, if is negative the traveling wave solution propagates towards the left, the left side is called downwind side and right side is the upwind side. If the finite difference scheme for the spatial derivative, ∂ u / ∂ x {\displaystyle \partial u/\partial x} contains more points in the upwind side, the scheme is called an upwind-biased ...
Solution in the central difference scheme fails to converge for Peclet number greater than 2 which can be overcome by using an upwind scheme to give a reasonable result. [1]: Fig. 5.5, 5.13 Therefore the upwind differencing scheme is applicable for Pe > 2 for positive flow and Pe < −2 for negative flow. For other values of Pe, this scheme ...
It is based on the upwind concept and was motivated to provide an alternative approach to other upwind methods, such as the Godunov method, flux difference splitting methods by Roe, and Solomon and Osher, flux vector splitting methods by Van Leer, and Steger and Warming.
In central differencing scheme and second order upwind scheme the first order derivative is included and the second order derivative is ignored. These schemes are therefore considered second order accurate where as QUICK does take the second order derivative into account, but ignores the third order derivative hence this is considered third ...

Though, dissipation can be thought of as artificial (or numerical) diffusion. Running the Forward-Euler, first order Upwind scheme on a simple advection (first order wave) equation with a coefficient of unity (A=1) with a binary initial condition (either 0 or 1) and periodic boundary conditions will eventually lead to no gradients what-so-ever.
