On the existence of solutions to generalized Navier--Stokes--Fourier system with dissipative heating

We consider a flow of non-Newtonian incompressible heat conducting fluids with dissipative heating. Such system can be obtained by scaling the classical Navier--Stokes--Fourier problem. As one possible singular limit may be obtained the so-called Oberbeck--Boussinesq system. However, this model is not suitable for studying the systems with high temperature gradient. These systems are described in much better way by completing the Oberbeck--Boussinesq system by an additional dissipative heating. The satisfactory existence result for such system was however not available. In this paper we show the large-data and the long-time existence of dissipative and suitable weak solution. This is the starting point for further analysis of the stability properties of such problems.

Well posedness of nonlinear parabolic systems beyond duality

We develop a methodology for proving well-posedness in optimal regularity spaces for a wide class of nonlinear parabolic initial-boundary value systems, where the standard monotone operator theory fails. A motivational example of a problem accessible to our technique is the following system \[ \partial_tu-\mathrm{div} ( ν(|\nabla u|) \nabla u )= -\mathrm{div} f \] with a given {strictly} positive bounded function $ν$, {such that $\lim_{k\to \infty} ν(k)=ν_\infty$} and $f \in L^q$ with $q\in (1,\infty)$. The {existence, uniqueness and regularity} results for $q\ge 2$ are by now standard. However, even if a priori estimates are available, the existence in case $q\in (1,2)$ was essentially missing. We overcome the related crucial difficulty, namely the lack of a standard duality pairing, by resorting to proper weighted spaces and consequently provide existence, uniqueness and optimal regularity in the entire range $q\in (1,\infty)$.
