First we construct a viscous contact wave which approximates to the contact discontinuity, which is a basic wave pattern of compressible Euler equation, in finite time as the heat conductivity tends to zero. Then we prove the viscous contact wave is asymptotic stable if the initial perturbations and the strength of the contact wave are small. This generalizes our previous result [6] which is only for polytropic gas.展开更多

[15, 22] and Ma [31]), but there is few result for general gases including ideal polytropic gas. We prove that if the solution to the corresponding Euler system of general gas satisfying (1.4) is piecewise constant with a contact discontinuity, then there exist smooth solutions to Navier-Stokes equations which converge to the inviscid solutions at a rate of k1/4 as the heat-conductivity coefficient k tends to zero. The key is to construct a viscous contact wave of general gas suitable to our proof (see Section 2). Notice that we have no need to restrict the strength of the contact discontinuity to be small.展开更多
