Abstract This paper is concerned with a dual mixed formulation of the Navier — Stokes system in a polygonal domain of the plane with mixed boundary conditions and its numerical approximation. The Neumann boundary condition is imposed using a Lagrange multiplier corresponding to the velocity field. Moreover, the strain tensor and the antisymmetric gradient tensor (vorticity), quantities of practical interest, are introduced as new unknowns. The problem is then approximated by a mixed finite element method. Quasi-optimal error estimates are finally obtained using refined meshes near singular corners.
