Rayleigh-Bénard problem for thermomicropolar fluids (Q1741783)

The authors discuss the two-dimensional Rayleigh-Bérnard problem for the flow of the thermomicropolar fluid between two horizontal planes, including the heat conduction and the heat dissipation. Besides Prandtl and Rayleigh numbers, the considered equations contain constants describing the relations between the classical and microrotation parameters. The existence of weak solutions and the existence of a unique strong solution are established. Global attractors for weak and strong solutions are also studied.
