Two-grid finite element methods for the steady Navier-Stokes/Darcy model are considered. Stability and optimal error estimates in the H1-norm for velocity and piezometric approximations and the L2-norm for pressure are established under mesh sizes satisfying h = H2. A modified decoupled and linearised two-grid algorithm is developed, together with some associated optimal error estimates. Our method and results extend and improve an earlier investigation, and some numerical computations illustrate the efficiency and effectiveness of the new algorithm.
