Abstract: We find a global a priori estimate for solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations with periodic boundary conditions guaranteeing in view of the Serrin type condition the existence of global regular solutions. We derive the following estimate

lVert V(t) Vert_{H^1(Omega)}leq c, qquad (1)

where

V

is the velocity of the fluid. The estimate (1) is proved in two steps. First we derive a global estimate guaranteeing the existence of global regular solutions to weakly compressible Navier-Stokes equations with large second viscosity, density close to a constant and gradient part of velocity small. Next we show that solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations remain close to solutions to the weakly compressible Navier-Stokes equations if the corresponding initial data and external forces are sufficiently close.
