Local Existence for Boussinesq Equations with Slip Boundary Condition in a Bounded Domain ()
1. Introduction
The Boussinesq equations are as follows:
(1.1)
where
is a bounded smooth domain of
,
and
represent density and temperature,
is the pressure function,
is the external force,
represent viscous coefficient and thermal conductivity coefficient.
In this paper, the initial data is given by
(1.2)
and the boundary condition is
,
,
(1.3)
Boussinesq equations are the classical model of fluid mechanics. There are a lot of important applications in marine ecology and weather forecasting. There are a lot of related conclusions about 2-D Boussinesq equations. Ye Zhuan [1] studied the Cauchy problem of the two-dimensional (2D) incompressible Boussinesq equations with fractional dissipation by making use of the nonlinear lower bounds for the fractional Laplacian established in Constantin and Vicol. Xiaojing Xu [2] studied the Cauchy problem of the two-dimensional (2D) incompressible Boussinesq equations with fractional Laplacian dissipation by the nonlinear lower bounds for the fractional Laplacian. In this paper, we want to study the 3-D Boussinesq equations. On the one hand, the regularity and well-posedness of Boussinesq equations is a popular problem that people study. Jishan fan [3] proved a regularity criterion for the 3D Boussinesq system with partial viscosity. T. Hmidi [4] studied the global well-posedness of the Euler-Boussinesq system with the term dissipation |D| α on the temperature equation. On the other hand, the existence of Boussinesq equations is always an important problem people are interested in. Ying Liu [5] applied the Fourier decomposition method to study the attenuation in
of the weak existence of the Boussinesq equations. Wei Li [6] used the homogeneous balance method and travelling-wave transformation to acquire some exact solutions of the Boussinesq equations. Xianjin Li [7] studied the global stability in
of the Boussinesq equations in three dimensional regional and unbounded regional.
However, for the initial questions and the boundary questions, the stations are more complicated and challenging. In fact, in fluid mechanics, two boundary conditions are considered mainly. One is the Diriclet boundary condition:
, and another is the famous boundary condition proposed by Navier:
(1.4)
where
is the unit outward normal on
,
is the tangential part of
,
denotes the deformation tensor:
.
Now, what we need to do is the study for the local existence of the problem (1.1) - (1.3). Usually, the followed existences are considered. First, the smooth of the existence is so small [8] [9] [10] that the initial data and the existence are close to a constant in
, however this existence does not have singularity. Second, the existence is the “large energy” proposed by Lions [11] . This existence has regularity but the analysis of the characteristic are more difficult and the uniqueness and the continuous dependence can’t be solved [12] [13] . Last, according to documents [14] [15] [16] , the initial data in
is small and the initial density is positive and bounded. For example, when the initial data is piecewise smooth, the solutions shown in [17] satisfy the Rankine-Hugoniot conditions in a strict point wise sense. On the other hand, these solutions have so enough structure and regularity that the uniqueness and continuous dependence theory can be proved in [18] . The well-posedness theory is nearly complete in the whole space, but for the Dirichlet condition: on
, the station
may have problems. However, if considering the Navier condition described above, the global weak small-energy solutions can be proved to exist in a half space for initial data with small energy and bounded density. David Hoff [19] studied the equations
(1.5)
where
denotes divergence.
Satisfying the bounded conditions:
(1.6)
where
is the unit outward normal on
,
is the projection onto the tangent plant to
at x, then the existence of the solutions can be given. T. Hmidi [20] studied a fractional diffusion Boussinesq model which couples a Navier-Stokes type equation with fractional diffusion for the velocity and a transport equation for the temperature by establishing global well-posedness results with rough initial data.
In this paper, we consider the Boussinesq equations. Because the temperature and the fluid are coupled together, the study becomes more difficult. The key we solve the problem is how to deal with the temperature.
First, we define a function

Similar to the Lame operator, there exist a bounded operator
