Direct numerical simulations and computational aeroacoustics require an accurate finite difference scheme that has a high order of truncation and high-resolution characteristics in the evaluation of spatial derivatives. Compact finite difference schemes are optimized to obtain maximum resolution characteristics in space for various spatial truncation orders. An analytic method with a systematic procedure to achieve maximum resolution characteristics is devised for multidiagonal schemes, based on the idea of the minimization of dispersive (phase) errors in the wave number domain, and these are applied to the analytic optimization of multidiagonal compact schemes.
