Abstract

The existence of a (global in time) solution to the Navier-Stokes equations for barotropic compressible fluids in a bounded interval is already known in the case of vanishing external force field. In this paper we consider these equations for time-independent forces and prove that: (i) there exists a global solution to the usual initial-boundary value problem; (ii) the density of the fluid is bounded and its infimum is greater than zero for infinite time only if the external forces and the pressure satisfy a compatibility condition (which is the same derived in [2] for the existence of a stationary solution having bounded and strictly positive density).
