Abstract

This paper investigates the two-dimensional stochastic steady-state Navier-Stokes(NS) equations with additive random noise. We introduce an innovative splitting method that decomposes the stochastic NS equations into a deterministic NS component and a stochastic equation. We rigorously analyze the proposed splitting method from the perspectives of equivalence, stability, existence and uniqueness of the solution. We also propose a modified splitting scheme, which simplified the stochastic equation by omitting its nonlinear terms. A detailed analysis of the solution properties for this modified approach is provided. Additionally, we discuss the statistical errors with both the original splitting format and the modified scheme. Our theoretical and numerical studies demonstrate that the equivalent splitting scheme exhibits significantly enhanced stability compared to the original stochastic NS equations, enabling more effective handling of nonlinear characteristics. Several numerical experiments were performed to compare the statistical errors of the splitting method and the modified splitting method. Notably, the deterministic NS equation in the splitting method does not require repeated solving, and the stochastic equation in the modified scheme is free of nonlinear terms. These features make the modified splitting method particularly advantageous for large-scale computations, as it significantly improves computational efficiency without compromising accuracy.
