Abstract: | The performance of parallel subdomain method with overlapping is analysed in the case of the 3D coupled boundary‐value problem of continuous flow electrophoresis which is governed by Navier–Stokes equations coupled with convection–diffusion and potential equations. Convergence of parallel synchronous and asynchronous iterative algorithms is studied. Comparison between implemented explicit and implicit schemes for the transport equation is made using these algorithms and shows that both methods provide similar results and comparable performances.
