Abstract

Numerical methods for singularly perturbed convection-diffusion problems posed on annular domains are constructed and their performance is examined for a range of small values of the singular perturbation parameter. A standard polar coordinate transformation leads to a transformed elliptic operator containing no mixed second order derivative and the transformed problem is then posed on a rectangular domain. In the radial direction, a piecewise-uniform Shishkin mesh is used. This mesh captures any boundary layer appearing near the outflow boundary. The performance of such a method is examined in the presence or absence of compatibility constraints at characteristic points, which are associated with the reduced problem.
