A mixed formulation of Boussinesq equations: Analysis of nonsingular solutions
Abstract. This paper is concerned with the mixed formulation of the Boussinesq equations in two-dimensional domains and its numerical approximation. The paper deals first with existence and uniqueness results, as well as the description of the regularity of any solution. The problem is then approximated by a mixed finite element method, where the gradient of the velocity and the gradient of the temperature, quantities of practical importance, are introduced as new unknowns. An existence result for the finite element solution and convergence results are proved near a nonsingular solution. Quasi-optimal error estimates are finally presented.
