We shall consider the one-dimensional full Navier-Stokes-Korteweg (NSK) system which are used to model full compressible fluids with internal capillarity.Formally, the full NSK system converges, as the viscosity, heat-conductivity, and capillary coefficient vanish, to the corresponding full Euler equation, and we do justify this for the case that the full Euler equation has a rarefaction wave. To prove this result, we first decompose the solution (v, u, 𝜃) as a small perturbation of the smooth rarefaction wave, then make use of the rescaling technique and an elementary energy method on two time scales. Moreover, the uniform convergence rates are also obtained.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
