In this article, we study the weak Galerkin finite element method to solve a class of a third order singularly perturbed convection-diffusion differential equations. Using some knowledge on the exact solution, we prove a robust uniform convergence of order O(N−(k−1/2)) on the layer-adapted meshes including Bakhvalov-Shishkin type, and Bakhvalov-type and almost optimal uniform error estimates of order O((N−1lnN)(k−1/2)) on Shishkin-type mesh with respect to the perturbation parameter in the energy norm using high-order piecewise discontinuous polynomials of degree k. Here N is the number mesh intervals. We conduct numerical examples to support our theoretical results.
