A coupled Newton iterative mixed finite element method for stationary conduction-convection problems (Q5962000)

The authors give a coupled Newton iterative mixed finite element method (MFEM) for solving stationary conduction-convection problems in two dimension. For solving the equations of conduction-convection problems, they use the Newton iterative MFEM. They derive a stability and convergence analysis in the \(H ^{1}\)-norm of \({u_h^n, T_h^n}\) and the \(L ^{2}\)-norm of \({p_h^n}.\) They prove that their method is stable and has a good precision. They also give some numerical results, which prove that the coupled Newton iterative MFEM is highly efficient for stationary conduction-convection problems.
