contents We present error estimates for the BMZ (Bubble Mesh Zoom) residual-free bubble method applied to a convection-diffusion equation in the convection-dominated regime. The method incorporates both element bubbles and residual-free bubbles supported on patches of two adjacent elements. We focus on the case of a parallel flow in a square domain and derive error estimates in an energy norm that remain valid as diffusion becomes small. The theoretical findings are corroborated by numerical experiments, which also exhibit a competitive performance of the method.
