An asymptotic analysis starting from the Navies-Stokes equation derived for a compressible ideal gas shows that there is a lack of consistency between compressible models and ‘incompressible’ sub-models, in the presence of heat conduction. The paper presents three mathematical formulations of the governing equations and restricts our attention to the twodimensional case.
