Abstract: In this article we consider the Euler-alpha system as a regularization of the incompressible Euler equations in a smooth, two-dimensional, bounded domain. For the limiting Euler system we consider the usual non-penetration boundary condition, while, for the Euler-alpha regularization, we use velocity vanishing at the boundary. We also assume that the initial velocities for the Euler-alpha system approximate, in a suitable sense, as the regularization parameter alphao0, the initial velocity for the limiting Euler system. For small values of alpha, this situation leads to a boundary layer, which is the main concern of this work. Our main result is that, under appropriate regularity assumptions, and despite the presence of this boundary layer, the solutions of the Euler-alpha system converge, as alphao0, to the corresponding solution of the Euler equations, in L2 in space, uniformly in time. We also present an example involving parallel flows, in order to illustrate the indifference to the boundary layer of the alphao0 limit, which underlies our work.
