A posteriori error estimation for incompressible viscous fluid with a new boundary condition

Résumé

This paper describes numerical solutions of incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with a new boundary condition. To solve this problem, we use the discretization by mixed finite element method. We use a vector extrapolation method for computing numerical solutions of the steady-state Navier-Stokes equations. In addition, two types of a posteriori error indicator are introduced and are shown to give global error estimates that are equivalent to the true error. A numerical experiment on the driven cavity flow is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the vector extrapolation method. We compare the result with the solution from commercial code like ADINA system as well as with values from other simulations.
