Keywords:
Navier-Stokes equations; suitable weak solution; generalized energy inequality
Summary:
We prove that there exists a suitable weak solution of the Navier-Stokes equation, which satisfies the generalized energy inequality for every nonnegative test function. This improves the famous result on existence of a suitable weak solution which satisfies this inequality for smooth nonnegative test functions with compact support in the space-time.
