description | Uniform error estimates with power-type asymptotic constants of the finite element method for the unsteady Navier–Stokes equations are deduced in this paper. By introducing an iterative scheme and studying its convergence, we firstly derive that the solution of the Navier–Stokes equations is bounded by power-type constants, where we avoid applying the Gronwall lemma, which generates exponential-type factors. Then, the technique is extended to the error estimate of the long-time finite element approximation. The analyses show that, under some assumptions on the given data, the asymptotic constants in the finite element error estimates for the unsteady Navier–Stokes equations are uniformly power functions with respect to the initial data, the viscosity, and the body force for all time <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mi>t</mi><mo>></mo><mn>0</mn></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula>.
