Abstract

The equations of motion of compressible viscous and heat-conductive fluids are investigated for initial boundary value problems on the half space and on the exterior domain of any bounded region. The global solution in time is proved to exist uniquely and approach the stationary state ast→∞, provided the prescribed initial data and the external force are sufficiently small.
