In this paper, we will provide the the finite element method for the electro-osmotic flow in micro-channels, in which a convection-diffusion type equation is given for the charge density ρe. A time-discrete method based on the backward Euler method is designed. The theoretical analysis shows that the numerical algorithm is unconditionally stable and has optimal convergence rates. To show the effectiveness of the proposed model, some numerical results for the electro-osmotic flow in the T-junction micro-channels and in rough micro-channels are provided. Numerical results indicate that the proposed numerical method is suitable for simulating electro-osmotic flows.
