Abstract

We consider the Euler system of gas dynamics endowed with the incomplete \((e - \varrho - p)\) equation of state relating the internal energy e to the mass density \(\varrho \) and the pressure p. We show that any sufficiently smooth solution can be recovered as a vanishing viscosity-heat conductivity limit of the Navier–Stokes–Fourier system with a properly defined temperature. The result is unconditional in the case of the Navier type (slip) boundary conditions and extends to the no-slip condition for the velocity under some extra hypotheses of Kato’s type concerning the behavior of the fluid in the boundary layer.

Notes

  1. Note, that we use the index n both for the sequence and the normal component. Throughout this paper \(\mathbf{u}_n\) denotes the nth element of the sequence \((\mathbf{u}_n)_{n=1}^{\infty }\) and \((\mathbf{u}_n)_n\) its normal component.
