Abstract:
We investigate a
nonconforming finite element on tensor product meshes applied to
convection-diffusion equations with dominating convection.\\
This (incomplete nonconforming $P_2$) element can be considered as an
enriched $Q_1^{rot}$ element (Rannacher-Turek element).
In difference to the $Q_1^{rot}$ element,
one obtains
a superclose property and superconvergence in the $H1$ seminorm.
Additionally, in the case of small diffusion parameters,
this enrichment of the $Q_1^{rot}$ element
leads to a stabilization in streamline direction similar to SDFEM.
