A variational formulation of the Navier-Stokes equation for steady flow of an incompressible fluid is presented and the limitations of the resulting equation are discussed. The finite element formulation based on the minimizing of functionals of the velocity and pressure fields is presented and a simple problem is treated to illustrate the method.
