This paper develops and analyses semi-discrete numerical method for two dimensional Vlasov-Stokes' system with periodic boundary condition. The method is based on coupling of semi-discrete discontinuous Galerkin method for the Vlasov equation with discontinuous Galerkin scheme for the stationary incompressible Stokes' equation. The proposed method is both mass and momentum conservative. Since it is difficult to establish non-negativity of the discrete local density, the generalized discrete Stokes' operator become non-coercive and indefinite and under smallness condition on the discretization parameter, optimal error estimates are established with help of a modified the Stokes' projection to deal with Stokes' part and with the help of a special projection to tackle the Vlasov part. Finally, numerical experiments based on the dG method combined with a splitting algorithm are performed.
