The Carreau generalized Newtonian model and the Giesekus viscoelastic constitutive equation are considered. The least-squares method offers the advantages of always generating a symmetric positive definite system, insensitivity to equation type, and no need for compatibility conditions between finite element spaces. Results of the weighted least-squares approach are presented, along with comparisons using a Galerkin mixed method. The numerical results indicate that with carefully chosen nonlinear weighting functions, the least-squares solution achieves an optimal convergence rate in the L2-norm for the approximation to each dependent variable for the generalized Newtonian problem. For the viscoelastic flow problem, the numerical solution exhibits a second order convergence rate for the velocity and superlinear convergence rate in stress and pressure. Observed convergence rates depend strongly on the choice of weighting functions. Least-squares solutions for flows through a 4-to-1 contraction channel are also considered. ? 2010 IMACS. |
