Optimal error estimate of the penalty finite element method for the time-dependent Navier-Stokes equations
A fully discrete penalty finite element method is presented for the two-dimensional time-dependent Navier-Stokes equations. The time discretization of the penalty Navier-Stokes equations is based on the backward Euler scheme; the spatial discretization of the time discretized penalty Navier-Stokes equations is based on a finite element space pair (Xh,Mh) which satisfies some approximate assumpt...
متن کاملFinite Element Analysis of Incompressible Viscous Flows by the Penalty Function Formulation
A review of recent work and new developments are presented for the penalty-function, finite element formulation of incompressible viscous flows. Basic features of the penalty method are described in the context of the steady and unsteady Navier-Stokes equations. Galerkin and “upwind” treatments of convection terms are discussed. Numerical results indicate the versatility and effectiveness of th...
متن کاملSymmetric Interior Penalty Dg Methods for the Compressible Navier–stokes Equations I: Method Formulation
In this article we consider the development of discontinuous Galerkin finite element methods for the numerical approximation of the compressible Navier–Stokes equations. For the discretization of the leading order terms, we propose employing the generalization of the symmetric version of the interior penalty method, originally developed for the numerical approximation of linear self-adjoint sec...
متن کاملInterior Penalty Finite Element Approximation of Navier-stokes Equations and Application to Free Surface Flows
In the present work, we investigate mathematical and numerical aspects of interior penalty finite element methods for free surface flows. We consider the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with variable density and viscosity, combined with a front capturing model using the level set method. We formulate interior penalty finite element methods for both the Navier-Stokes equations and the lev...
متن کاملNatural Convection Heat Transfer within Octagonal Enclosure
The problem of steady, laminar and incompressible natural convection flow in an octagonalenclosure was studied. In this investigation, two horizontal walls were maintained at a constant hightemperature, two vertical walls were kept at a constant low temperature and all inclined walls wereconsidered adiabatic. The enclosure was assumed to be filled with a Bousinessq fluid. The studyincludes comp...
