This paper is devoted to the study of numerical approximation for a class of two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations with slip boundary conditions of friction type. The objective is to establish the well-posedness and stability of the numerical scheme in L 2 -norm and H 1 -norm for all positive time using the Crank-Nicholson scheme in time and the finite element approximation in space. The resulting variational structure dealing with is in the form of inequality, and obtaining H 1 -estimate is more involved because of the presence of the nondifferentiable term appearing at the boundary where slip occurs. We prove that the numerical scheme is stable in L 2 and H 1 -norms with the aid of different versions of discrete Grownwall lemmas, under a CFL-type condition. Finally, some numerical simulations are presented to illustrate our theoretical analysis.
