Fourth-order accurate compact schemes for variable coefficient convection diffusion equations are considered. A sufficient condition for the stability of the fully discrete problem is derived using a difference equation based approach. The constant coefficient problems are considered as a special case, and the unconditional stability of compact schemes for such case is proved theoretically. The condition number of the amplification matrix is also analyzed, and an estimate for the same is derived. The examples are provided to support the assumption taken to assure stability.
