Summary: We present a fully discrete format of nonlinear Galerkin mixed element method with backward one-step Euler time discretization for non-stationary conduction-convection problems. The scheme is based on two finite element spaces \(X_H\) and \(X_h\) for the approximation of velocity, defined respectively on a coarse grid with grid size \(H\), and on another fine grid with grid size \(h\ll H\), a finite element space \(M_h\) for the approximation of pressure, and two finite element spaces \(W_H\) and \(W_h\) for the approximation of temperature, also defined respectively on the coarse grid with grid size \(H\) and on another fine grid with grid size \(h\). We demonstrate the existence and the convergence of fully discrete mixed element solution. The scheme consists in using standard backward one-step Euler-Galerkin fully discrete format for the first \(L_0\) steps \((L_0\geq 2)\) on the fine grid with grid size \(h\), but using nonlinear Galerkin mixed element method of backward one-step Euler-Galerkin fully discrete format through the (\(L_0+1\))th step to the end step. We prove that for the fully discrete nonlinear Galerkin mixed element procedure with respect to the coarse grid spaces with grid size \(H\) holds superconvergence.
