We have demonstrated the applicability of Taylor-Hood elements for the stable discretization of the acoustic conservation equations. Therewith, we have shown their convergence behavior towards h-FEM (reducing the mesh size) and p-FEM (increasing the order of the FE basis functions). The results are quite comparable to the convergence behavior of standard finite elements solving the wave equation. In addition, we have shown first results of the applied Taylor-Hood elements, when we solve the extended conservation equations including convection due to some fluid flow within the propagation region.
