What is FEM vs FVM: Key Differences Explained about?

In finite volume methods (FVM), dependent variable values are stored at the center of each finite volume or cell, ensuring conservation of properties like mass, momentum and energy within each cell. This distinguishes FVM from finite difference and finite element methods, where values are stored at nodes, and conservation within individual cells or volumes is not guaranteed. FVM is therefore preferable for solving problems using the conservative form of governing equations to ensure conservation in each fin
