A necessary condition for the convergence of a finite difference method for a hyperbolic [partial differential equation] is that the numerical domain of dependence contains the mathematical domain of dependence. This requirement is known as the Courant-Friedrichs-Levy or CFL condition, named after the authors who first described this requirement. 5, record 1, English, - Courant%2DFriedrichs%2DLewy%20condition

Efecto especial de la inestabilidad de cálculo (error de los cálculos numéricos aproximados que aumenta rápidamente al avanzar el cálculo) asociado a la predicción meteorológica numérica. Si el tamaño de la rejilla es inferior a la distancia recorrida en el intervalo de paso de tiempo por la onda más rápida que permita la ecuación, los errores aumentarán y deteriorarán la solución física. 1, record 1, Spanish, - condici%C3%B3n%20C%2DF%2DL
