Convergence of a two-parameter hyperbolic relaxation system toward the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations

Qian Huang, Christian Rohde, Ruixi Zhang

Abstract

We investigate a two-parameter hyperbolic relaxation approximation to the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, incorporating a first-order relaxation and the artificial compressibility method. With vanishingly small perturbations of initial velocity, we rigorously prove the simultaneous convergence of fluid velocity and pressure toward the Navier-Stokes limit in the three-dimensional case by constructing an intermediate affine system to obtain the necessary error estimates for the pressure. Furthermore, we extend the velocity convergence analysis to the case of $\mathcal O(1)$ initial velocity perturbations, and establish the global-in-time recovery of the velocity field using a modulated energy structure and delicate bootstrap arguments in both two- and three-dimensional settings.

Theorem 2.1

Assume that there exist constants $a \in [0,2)$ and $C_0>0$, both independent of $\epsilon$ and $\delta$, such that Then, if $T_0<\infty$, the solution $(u^{\epsilon,\delta},p^{\epsilon,\delta},U^{\epsilon,\delta})$ of the initial value problem for eq:relax exists on $[0,T_0]$ for sufficiently small $\epsilon$ and $\delta$. Otherwise, if $T_0=\infty$, the existing time $T_{\epsilon,\delta}$ is un
