Decay of the kinetic and the thermal energy of compressible micropolar fluids

Abnahme der kinetischen und der thermischen Energie kompressibler mikropolarer Flüssigkeiten

Acta Mechanica Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

We consider a heat conducting compressible micropolar fluid at rest and filling a closed stationary rigid container. We show that the energy of arbitrary disturbances of the fluid eventually decays.

Zusammenfassung

Betrachtet wird eine ruhende, wärmeleitende, kompressible, mikropolare Flüssigkeit und das Füllen eines geschlossenen stationären starren Behälters. Es wird gezeigt, daß die Energie beliebiger Störungen der Flüssigkeit unter Umständen abnimmt.
