On the axisymmetric Navier-Stokes flow passing a cone with the total-slip boundary condition
Abstract
For the incompressible Navier-Stokes flows passing a certain type of cones with the Navier total-slip boundary condition, we show that there exists an absolute constant such that if then there exists a unique global bounded strong solution with finite energy, where means the distance to the axis, and represents the initial value of the azimuthal component of the velocity . Unlike in the previous conclusion in \cite{LPYZZZ24}, no parity assumption on is needed. There are four key ingredients in the proof. (1) In spherical coordinates, we introduce three new quantities \mathcal{K}\buildrel\hbox{def}\over =\frac{\sin\phi}{\rho^2}\partial_\phi\Big(\frac{v_\theta}{\sin\phi}\Big) \,,\quad\quad\mathcal{F}\buildrel\hbox{def}\over =-\partial_\rho\Big(\frac{v_\theta}{\rho}\Big) \,,\quad\quad \mathcal{O}\buildrel\hbox{def}\over =\frac{1}{\rho\sin\phi}\Big(\omega_\theta-\frac{2v_\phi\eta(\rho)}{\rho}\Big) \,, and derive a self-closed energy estimate for them, where is a cut-off function which vanishes near the origin and equals away from the origin. (2) A boundary value problem of the pressure is proposed and an elliptic estimate for is established in order to control boundary terms arising from the Navier total-slip boundary condition. (3) A De Giorgi iteration scheme is applied to establish the boundedness of the quantity whose integral on vanishes for all the time. (4) A new anisotropic Hardy's inequality is derived for functions whose integral on vanish.
