The zero limit of angular viscosity for the two-dimensional micropolar fluid equations

Abstract In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem of the incompressible micropolar fluids in dimension two. We prove that as the angular viscosity goes to zero (i.e.,  γ → 0 ), the solution converges to a global solution of the original equations with zero angular viscosity. Convergence rates are also obtained.
