Suitable weak solutions: From compressible viscous to incompressible inviscid fluid flows (Q2377007)

The authors study the singular limits of the compressible viscous Navier-Stokes system in a three-dimensional unbounded domain with slip boundary condition. In the framework of suitable weak solutions which essentially differ from the usual weak solutions in that they should verify a relative entropy inequality, it is showed that, the inviscid and incompressible limits of such suitable weak solutions is the unique regular solution to the incompressible Euler system on the time interval in which there exists a unique regular solution to the Euler system. This result generalize the one by \textit{N. Masmoudi} [Ann. Inst. Henri Poincaré, Anal. Non Linéaire 18, No. 2, 199--224 (2001; Zbl 0991.35058)] for the Cauchy problem.
