Abstract

This paper investigates a general class of viscous regularizations of the compressible Euler equations. A unique regularization is identified that is compatible with all the generalized entropies a la Harten and satisfies the minimum entropy principle. A connection with a recently proposed phenomenological model by H. Brenner is made.
