| Abstract: | In this article, we study the numerical solution of singularly perturbed parabolic convection–diffusion problems exhibiting regular boundary layers. To solve these problems, we use the classical upwind finite difference scheme on layer-adapted nonuniform grids. The nonuniform grids are obtained by equidistribution of a positive monitor function, which is a linear combination of a constant and the second-order spatial derivative of the singular component of the solution on every temporal level. Truncation error and the stability analysis are obtained. Parameter-uniform error estimates are derived for the numerical solution. To support the theoretical results, numerical experiments are carried out. |
