The mixed finite-element approximation of a porous media flow by the lowest order Raviart-Thomas elements is transformed by elimination of the fluxes into a positive definite Schur complement system for the pressures, which is solved by conjugate gradients preconditioned by a multigrid method for related cell-centered finite differences. The matrix of the fluxes can be inverted cheaply for rectangular grids, but for distorted meshes, the elimination is done by inner iterations with incomplete Cholesky preconditioning.
