Upwinded parabolic and cubic elements are derived on a uniform grid of size h for the finite element Galerkin method applied to the solution of the model conduction−convection problem ε u ″ — Ku ′ = 0, ε, K > 0, subject to the boundary conditions u (0) = 1, u (1) = 0. Extension of the results to more complicated problems is indicated. Finally numerical results are given comparing some of the methods derived for a range of L (= Kh /2ε), the grid Peclet number.
