We prove, for Stokes, Oseen, and Boussinesq finite element discretizations on general meshes, that grad-div stabilized Taylor-Hood velocity solutions converge to the pointwise divergence-free solution (found with the iterated penalty method) at a rate of γ−1, where γ is the grad-div parameter. However, pressure is only guaranteed to converge when (Xh,∇ ·Xh) satisfies the LBB condition, where Xh is the finite element velocity space. For the Boussinesq equations, the temperature solution also converges at the rate γ−1. We provide several numerical tests that verify our theory. This extends work in [6] which requires special macroelement structure in the mesh.
