## Abstract

The velocity, coupling term in the flow and transport problems, is important in the accurate numerical simulation or in the posteriori error analysis for adaptive mesh refinement. We consider Enhanced Velocity Mixed Finite Element Method for the incompressible Darcy flow. In this paper, our aim to study the improvement of velocity at interface to achieve the better approximation of velocity between subdomains. We propose the reconstruction of velocity at interface by using the post-processed pressure. Numerical results at the interface show improvement on convergence rate.
