  • Abstract

We develop, analyze and test adaptive penalty parameter methods. We prove unconditional stability for velocity when adapting the penalty parameter, $ϵ,$ and stability of the velocity time derivative under a condition on the change of the penalty parameter, $ϵ(t_{n+1}) − ϵ(t_n).$ The analysis and tests show that adapting $ϵ(t_{n+1})$ in response to $∇·u(t_n)$ removes the problem of picking $ϵ$ and yields good approximations for the velocity. We provide error analysis and numerical tests to support these results. We supplement the adaptive-$ϵ$ method by also adapting the time-step. The penalty parameter ϵ and time-step are adapted independently. We further compare first, second and variable order time-step algorithms. Accurate recovery of pressure remains an open problem.
