Abstract

Given the values of a 3-dimensional function at unevenly spaced grid points on the grid structure of a channel, we describe a new analytical algorithm to determine the function value at an arbitrary point inside the channel. This algorithm has been implemented on a Univac 1100/81 computer in PL/I.
