O presente trabalho propoe analisar metodologias para o calculo do gradiente em malhas nao-estruturadas do tipo Voronoi que sao utilizadas no metodo de Volumes Finitos. Quatro metodologias para o calculo do gradiente sao testadas e comparadas com solucoes analiticas. As tecnicas utilizadas sao: Metodo do Balanco de Forcas, Metodo do Minimo Residuo Quadratico, Metodo da Media dos Gradientes Projetos e Metodo da Media dos Gradientes Projetados Corrigidos. Uma analise por serie de Taylor foi utilizada e as equacoes analiticas comparadas com resultados numericos. Os testes sao realizados em malhas cartesianas e malhas triangulares. A influencia do ponto gerador e do angulo de rotacao e analisada.
