We study a finite element approximation of the initial-boundary value problem of the 3D incompressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) system under smooth domains and data. We first establish several important regularities and a priori estimates for the velocity, pressure and magnetic field (u, p, B) of the MHD system under the assumption that ∇u ∈ L4(0,T;L2(Ω)3 × 3) and ∇ × B ∈ L4(0,T;L2(Ω)3). Then we formulate a finite element approximation of the MHD flow. Finally, we derive the optimal error estimates of the discrete velocity and magnetic field in energy-norm and the discrete pressure in L2-norm, and the optimal error estimates of the discrete velocity and magnetic field in L2-norm by means of a novel negative-norm technique, without the help of the standard duality argument for the Navier-Stokes equations.
