Abstract

We consider the full Navier–Stokes–Fourier system describing the motion of a compressible viscous and heat conducting fluid driven by a time-periodic external force. We show the existence of at least one weak time periodic solution to the problem under the basic hypothesis that the system is allowed to dissipate the thermal energy through the boundary. Such a condition is in fact necessary, as energetically closed fluid systems do not possess non-trivial (changing in time) periodic solutions as a direct consequence of the Second law of thermodynamics.
