In this paper we further explore a local postprocessing technique, originally developed by Bramble and Schatz [Math. Comp., 31 (1977), pp. 94--111] using continuous finite element methods for elliptic problems and later by Cockburn et al. [Math. Comp., 72 (2003), pp. 577--606] using discontinuous Galerkin methods for hyperbolic equations. We investigate the technique in the context of superconvergence of the derivatives of the numerical solution, two space dimensions for both tensor product local basis and the usual kth degree polynomials basis, multidomain problems with different mesh sizes, variable coefficient linear problems including those with discontinuous coefficients, and linearized Euler equations applied to an aeroacoustic problem. We demonstrate through extensive numerical examples that the technique is very effective in all these situations in enhancing the accuracy of the discontinuous Galerkin solutions.
