Incompressible flow in porous media with fractional diffusion

preprint2008arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper we study the heat transfer with a general fractional diffusion term of an incompressible fluid in a porous medium governed by Darcy's law. We show formation of singularities with infinite energy and for finite energy we obtain existence and uniqueness results of strong solutions for the sub-critical and critical cases. We prove global existence of weak solutions for different cases. Moreover, we obtain the decay of the solution in LpL^p, for any p≥2p\geq2, and the asymptotic behavior is shown. Finally, we prove the existence of an attractor in a weak sense and, for the sub-critical dissipative case with α∈(1,2]α\in (1,2], we obtain the existence of the global attractor for the solutions in the space HsH^s for any s>(N/2)+1−αs > (N/2)+1-α.
