Abstract
In this paper we study the problem of energy conservation for the solutions of the initial–boundary value problem associated to the 3D Navier–Stokes equations, with Dirichlet boundary conditions.First, we consider Leray–Hopf weak solutions and we prove some new criteria, involving the gradient of the velocity. Next, we compare them with the existing literature in scaling invariant spaces and with the Onsager conjecture.Then, we consider the problem of energy conservation for very-weak solutions, proving energy equality for distributional solutions belonging to the so-called Shinbrot class. A possible explanation of the role of this classical class of solutions, which is not scaling invariant, is also given.
