Abstract

This paper presents the a posteriori error estimate of residual for natural convection problem, which is computed by the two level Newton finite element method. The a posteriori error estimate contains additional terms in comparison to the one obtained by the standard one level finite element method. The action of the add-itional terms in the error estimate is investigated by studying their asymptotic behaviour. For optimally scaled meshes between coarse and fine meshes of the two level Newton finite element method, the additional terms are not of higher convergence order than the order of the numerical solution. Numerical experiments verify the obtained theory results.

Key words： two level finite element method; natural convection problem; posteriori error estimate
