This article deals with the numerical approximation of miscible displacement problem of one incompressible fluid in a porous medium. The adopted formulation is based on the combined use of a mixed finite‐element scheme to treat pressure equation and of the finite‐element approach to treat concentration equation. Optimal‐order error estimates are obtained under some milder mesh‐parameter constraints. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq 28: 707–719, 2012
