A regularizing effect of radiation in the equations of fluid dynamics

We investigate the properties of a class of variational solutions to the equations of fluid dynamics when radiation effects are taken into account. The main aim is to prove weak sequential stability of the solution set under certain hypotheses imposed on the pressure, viscosity, and heat conductivity. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
