New iterative methods with complete and incomplete splitting of boundary conditions were developed and investigated. These methods were developed for the highly efficient numerical solution of the boundary-valued problems for the Stokes-type system with a small parameters. The numerical solution of these problems encounters, in addition to the singularity of a problem, some difficulties due to presence of the pressure and the continuity equation in the system, especially in the three-dimensional case. Thus, the development of iterative methods to solve the boundary-valued problem separately for velocity and pressure in each iteration becomes an important problem. The iterative methods used for numerical solution of these problems have an important feature that gives one an opportunity to split the boundary conditions and generate two separate problems: the Neumann problem for pressure and the Dirichlet-Neumann vector problem for velocity in the case of incomplete boundary condition splitting, or the Dirichlet scalar problems (for each velocity component in the Helmholtz equation) in the case of complete splitting. We should note the high convergence rates for these methods, which increase with a decrease in the parameter F, value.
