Abstract

This paper proves a Serrin’s type blow-up criterion for the 3D density-dependent Navier-Stokes-Korteweg equations with vacuum. It is shown that if the density ϱ and velocity field u satisfy \(\Vert\nabla\varrho\Vert_{L^{\infty}(0,T;W^{1,q})}+\Vert u\Vert_{L^{s}(0,T;L_{\omega}^{r})}<\infty\) for some q > 3 and any (r, s) satisfying 2/s + 3/r ⩽ 1, 3 < r ⩽ ∞, then the strong solutions to the density-dependent Navier-Stokes-Korteweg equations can exist globally over [0, T]. Here L rω denotes the weak Lr space.
