We extend and analyze the deep neural network multigrid solver (DNN-MG) for the Navier-Stokes equations in three dimensions. The idea of the method is to augment of finite element simulations on coarse grids with fine scale information obtained using deep neural networks. This network operates locally on small patches of grid elements. The local approach proves to be highly efficient, since the network can be kept (relatively) small and since it can be applied in parallel on all grid patches. However, the main advantage of the local approach is the inherent good generalizability of the method. Since the network is only ever trained on small sub-areas, it never ``sees'' the global problem and thus does not learn a false bias. We describe the method with a focus on the interplay between finite element method and deep neural networks. Further, we demonstrate with numerical examples the excellent efficiency of the hybrid approach, which allows us to achieve very high accuracies on coarse grids and thus reduce the computation time by orders of magnitude.
