The uncertainty quantification (UQ) for partial differential equations (PDEs) with random parameters is important for science and engineering. Forward UQ quantifies the impact of random parameters on the solution or the quantity-of-interest (QoI). In the current study, we propose a new extension of the stochastic finite volume (SFV) method by clustering samples in the parameter space. Compared to classic SFV based on structured grid in the parameter space, the new scheme based on clustering extends SFV to parameter spaces of higher dimensions. This paper presents the construction of SFV schemes for typical parametric elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic equations for Darcy flows in porous media, as well as the error analysis, demonstration and validation of the new extension using typical reservoir simulation test cases.
