In this note, we apply a finite element stream function formulation with inter‐element penalties to the Navier‐Stokes equations. The approach is an extension of a technique previously introduced for Stokes, flow. The solution is obtained by iterative linearization using successive approximation, and results for a standard numerical test case are given.
