Abstract

The authors establish a Serrin-type blowup criterion for the Cauchy problem of the three-dimensional full compressible Navier–Stokes system, which states that a strong or smooth solution exists globally, provided that the velocity satisfies Serrin’s condition and that the temporal integral of the maximum norm of the divergence of the velocity is bounded. In particular, this criterion extends the well-known Serrin’s blowup criterion for the three-dimensional incompressible Navier–Stokes equations to the three-dimensional full compressible system and is just the same as that of the barotropic case.
