Summary Certain projection post-processing techniques have been proposed for computing the boundary flux for two-dimensional problems (e.g., see Carey, et al. [5]). In a series of numerical experiments on elliptic problems they observed that these post-processing formulas for approximate fluxes were almost (O(h 2)-accurate for linear triangular elements. In this paper we prove that the computed boundary flux isO(h 2 ln 1/h)-accurate in the maximum norm for the partial method of [5]. If the solutionuφH 3(Ω) then the boundary flux error isO(h 3/2) in theL 2-norm.
