Abstract

In this article we apply the renormalization group method to study the potential flows of a compressible viscous fluid at small Reynolds number. The derived renormalization equation of order one is a system of reaction convection diffusion equations. The global existence and uniqueness of the weak solutions satisfying the energy inequality are proved following the methodology of Leray. The comparison between the exact solution and its approximation is also discussed.
