Abstract:We study the vanishing viscosity limit for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with anisotropic viscosity in bounded domains, analyzing certain classes of symmetric flows: plane parallel, pipe parallel and circularly symmetric. By anisotropic viscosity, it is meant here that the viscosity coefficient in the direction normal to the wall is different than that in the direction tangential to the wall. Using boundary layer theory and semigroup techniques, we establish the validity of the vanishing viscosity limit in the energy norm, that is, in $L^2$ in space uniformly in time, for all three classes of flows, with explicit convergence rates. We further obtain higher-order estimates under suitable assumptions on the anisotropic viscosity coefficients. In particular, we consider both the case in which the tangential viscosity coefficient goes to zero faster than the normal one and, conversely, the case when the normal coefficient vanishes faster then the tangential one. Our results extend previous works on isotropic viscosity and provide new examples where the vanishing viscosity limit can be rigorously justified in the anisotropic setting.
