This paper examines a temperature dependent Stokes flow in a semi-infinite cylinder. Under appropriate initial and boundary conditions the author establishes exponential decay of solutions in energy norm with distance from the finite end of the cylinder.

In this paper, spatial decay estimates for the time dependent compressible viscous isentropic flow in a semi-infinite three dimensional pipe are derived. An upper bound for the total energy in terms of the initial boundary data is obtained as well. The results established in this paper may be viewed as a version of Saint-Venant's principle in transient compressible Navier-Stokes flow.
