Abstract  We investigate the temporal accuracy of two generalized‐   α    schemes for the incompressible Navier‐Stokes equations. In a widely‐adopted approach, the pressure is collocated at the time step   t   n  + 1   while the remainder of the Navier‐Stokes equations is discretized following the generalized‐   α    scheme. That scheme has been claimed to be  second‐order accurate in time . We developed a suite of numerical code using inf‐sup stable higher‐order non‐uniform rational B‐spline (NURBS) elements for spatial discretization. In doing so, we are able to achieve high spatial accuracy and to investigate asymptotic temporal convergence behavior. Numerical evidence suggests that only  first‐order accuracy  is achieved, at least for the pressure, in this aforesaid temporal discretization approach. On the other hand, evaluating the pressure at the intermediate time stept    n  +    α    frecovers second‐order accuracy, and the numerical implementation is simplified. We recommend this second approach as the generalized‐   α    scheme of choice when integrating the incompressible Navier‐Stokes equations.
