Global Convergence to Compressible Full Navier–Stokes Equations by Approximation with Oldroyd-Type Constitutive Laws

Abstract

We consider smooth solutions to a relaxed Euler system with Oldroyd-type constitutive laws. This system is derived from the one-dimensional compressible full Navier-Stokes equations for a Newtonian fluid by using the Cattaneo-Christov model and the Oldroyd-B model. In a neighborhood of equilibrium states, we construct an explicit symmetrizer and show that the system is symmetrizable hyperbolic with partial dissipation. Moreover, by establishing uniform estimates with respect to the relaxation times, we prove the uniform global existence of smooth solutions and the global-in-time convergence of the system towards the full Navier-Stokes equations.

An Eulerian hyperbolic model for heat transfer derived via Hamilton’s principle: analytical and numerical study

“…This is due to the facts that the characteristic fields of thermal nature are neither genuinely nonlinear nor linearly degenerate in the sense of Lax. Possible continuation of the analysis would be to prove rigorously the convergence of exact solutions of this model to those of the Euler system with heat conduction, for instance, by using frequency decomposition techniques, see [51–54]. At the numerical level, in order to solve multi-dimensional problems, it will be necessary to use proper numerical methods that are compatible with the curl-free constraint that binds the vector field j.…”

Global existence versus blow-up for multi-d hyperbolized compressible Navier-Stokes equations

“…Recently, Peng and Zhao [29] studied the 1-d version and obtained in partical a global existence result which is uniform with respect to τ as well as a global convergence result in a weak topology.…”
