Abstract
This article surveys some results in the study of Iannelli [Su un modello di Oberbeck-Boussinesq relativo al moto di un fluido viscoso soggetto a riscaldamento, Fisica Matematica, Istituto Lombardo (rend. Sc.) A 121 (1987), 145–191], in which the motion of a viscous, compressible fluid in a two-dimensional domain, subject to heating at the walls, is studied. A global existence and uniqueness theorem for the time-dependent problem is given, and also, under more stringent assumptions, an existence and uniqueness theorem in the stationary case is given. A theorem on the asymptotic behavior for
t
→
∞
t\to \infty
of the time-dependent solutions is proved.
