Abstract In this work, a priori error estimates for finite element approximations to the governing equations of heat and mass transfer in fluidized beds are derived. These equations are time dependent strongly coupled system of five semilinear convection-diffusion-reaction equations. The a priori error estimates for all the five variables are obtained for the error measured in L ∞(L 2) and L 2 ( E ) ${L}^{2}\left(\mathcal{E}\right)$ , E $\mathcal{E}$ is the energy norm.

The objective of this paper is to present a study of the solvability, stability and optimal error bounds of certain mixed finite element formulations for acoustic fluids. An analytical proof of the stability and optimal error bounds of a set of three-field mixed finite element discretizations is given, and the interrelationship between the inf–sup condition, including the numerical inf–sup test, and the eigenvalue problem pertaining to the natural frequencies is discussed.
