Abstract

In this paper, we study the global existence of steady subsonic Euler flows through infinitely long nozzles which are periodic in x1x_1 direction with the period LL. It is shown that when the variation of Bernoulli function at some given section is small and mass flux is in a suitable regime, there exists a unique global subsonic flow in the nozzle. Furthermore, the flow is also periodic in x1x_1 direction with the period LL. If, in particular, the Bernoulli function is a constant, we also get the existence of subsonic-sonic flows when the mass flux takes the critical value.
