In this article, we present and analyze a weak Galerkin finite element method (WG-FEM) for the coupled Navier-Stokes/temperature (or Boussinesq) problems. In this WG-FEM, discontinuous functions are applied to approximate the velocity, temperature, and the normal derivative of temperature on the boundary while piecewise constants are used to approximate the pressure. The stability, existence and uniqueness of solution of the associated WG-FEM are proved in detail. An optimal a priori error estimate is then derived for velocity in the discrete H-1 and L-2 norms, pressure in the L-2 norm, temperature in the discrete H-1 and L-2 norms, and the normal derivative of temperature in H-1/2 norm. Finally, to complete this study some numerical tests are presented which illustrate that the numerical errors are consistent with theoretical results. (c) 2021 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
