Abstract

Motivated by well-driven flow transport in porous media, Chenand Yue proposed a numerical homogenization method for Greenfunction [Multiscale Model. Simul.1 (2003) 260–303]. In that paper,the authors focused on the well pore pressure, so the local erroranalysis in maximum norm was presented. As a continuation, we willconsider a fully discrete scheme and its multiscale error analysis on the velocity field.
