Abstract

We considered mixed finite element discretization of generalized Darcy–Forchheimer model in a two or three dimensional porous domain, using a piecewise constant and continuous piecewise linear finite elements. The existence, uniqueness, stability and convergence of the discrete solution are established. The error estimates for the velocity and pressure in L m and L [Formula presented] respectively are obtained for any m∈(1,2]. Numerical examples are also presented to confirm the rate of convergence.
