About the barotropic compressible quantum Navier-Stokes equations (Q888862)

The object of this work is the Navier-Stokes equation with an additional term, which provides an opportunity to describe the quantum fluid accordingly to the Bohmian approach. To prove global existence of weak solutions, the authors introduce one more extra term: a cold pressure, which tends to infinity when the density approaches zero. This trick allows the proof of the existence of a global weak solution without additional assumptions and by applying conventional methods for the cases of both finite and zero factors multiplied by the quantum term (the second case corresponds to the condition when the scaled Plank constant value is negligible).
