We present a 19‐point fourth‐order finite difference method for the nonlinear second‐order system of three‐dimensional elliptic equations Au xx + Bu yy + Cu zz = f , where A , B , C , are M × M diagonal matrices, on a cubic region R subject to the Dirichlet boundary conditions u ( x , y , z ) = u (0) ( x , y , z ) on ∂ R . We establish, under appropriate conditions, O ( h 4 ) convergence of the difference method. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the method and its fourth‐order convergence. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
