In this work, the dual-weighted residual method is applied to a space-time formulation of nonstationary Stokes and Navier–Stokes flow. Tensor-product space-time finite elements are being used to discretize the variational formulation with discontinuous Galerkin finite elements in time and inf-sup stable Taylor–Hood finite element pairs in space. To estimate the error in a quantity of interest and drive adaptive refinement in time and space, we demonstrate how the dual-weighted residual method for incompressible flow can be extended to a partition-of-unity based error localization. We substantiate our methodology on 2D benchmark problems from computational fluid mechanics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
