Two phase micropolar fluid flow with unmatched densities modeled by Navier–Stokes–Cahn–Hilliard systems: local strong well-posedness and consistency estimates

We study a thermodynamically consistent phase field model for binary mixtures of micropolar fluids, i.e., fluids exhibiting internal rotations. Furnishing with classical no-slip, no-spin and no-flux boundary conditions, in a smooth and bounded three-dimensional domain, we establish the well-posedness of local-in-time strong solutions. Since the model studied is a generalization of the earlier model introduced by Abels, Garcke and Grün for binary Newtonian fluids with unmatched densities, we provide a consistency result between the corresponding strong solutions to both models in terms of a parameter associated to the micro-rotation viscosity.
