The classical Prandtl-Batchelor theorem (Prandtl 1904; Batchelor 1956) states that in the regions of steady 2D flow where viscous forces are small and streamlines are closed, the vorticity is constant. In this paper, we extend this theorem…

In the vanishing viscosity limit from the Navier-Stokes to Euler equations on domains with boundaries, a main difficulty comes from the mismatch of boundary conditions and, consequently, the possible formation of a boundary layer. Within a…

Assume no-slip boundary conditions for the velocity field and either insulated or Dirichlet boundary conditions for the temperature field in a steady compressible fluid. In the inviscid limit $\v \rightarrow 0$, we develop a mathematical…

We establish various criteria, which are known in the incompressible case, for the validity of the inviscid limit for the compressible Navier-Stokes flows considered in a general domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with or without a boundary.…
In this three-part monograph, we prove that steady, incompressible Navier-Stokes flows posed over the moving boundary, $y = 0$, can be decomposed into Euler and Prandtl flows in the inviscid limit globally in $[1,\infty) \times [0,\infty)$,…
The issue of the inviscid limit for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations when a no-slip condition is prescribed on the boundary is a famous open problem. A result by Tosio Kato says that convergence to the Euler equations holds true…
The rigorous justification of the hydrodynamic limits of kinetic equations in bounded domains has been actively investigated in recent years. In spite of the progress for the diffuse-reflection boundary case, the more challenging in-flow…
We consider the incompressible Euler equations in a bounded domain in three space dimensions. Recently, the first two authors proved Onsager's conjecture for bounded domains, i.e., that the energy of a solution to these equations is…
In this paper, we study the zero-viscosity limit of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations in a half-space with non-slip boundary condition. We justify the Prandtl boundary layer expansion for the analytic data: the compressible…
For steady two-dimensional flows with a single eddy (i.e. nested closed streamlines), Prandtl (1905) and Batchelor (1956) proposed that in the limit of vanishing viscosity the vorticity is constant in an inner region separated from the…
In this article, we study the 2D incompressible steady Navier-Stokes equation in a channel $(-L,0)\times(-1,1)$ with the no-slip boundary condition on $\{Y = \pm 1\}$, and consider the inviscid limit $\varepsilon \to 0$. In the special case…
We propose a two-dimensional flow model of a viscous fluid between two close moving surfaces. We show, using a formal asymptotic expansion of the solution, that its asymptotic behavior, when the distance between the two surfaces tends to…
We consider a vanishing viscosity sequence of weak solutions of the three-dimensional Navier--Stokes equations on a bounded domain. In a seminal paper [25] Kato showed that for sufficiently regular solutions, the vanishing viscosity limit…
