Consider a non-Newtonian fluid equation with a nonlinear convection term and a source term. The existence of the weak solution is proved by Simon’s compactness theorem. By the Hölder inequality, if both the diffusion coefficient and the convection term are degenerate on the boundary, then the stability of the weak solutions may be proved without the boundary value condition. If the diffusion coefficient is only degenerate on a part of the boundary value, then a partial boundary value condition is required. Based on this partial boundary, the stability of the weak solutions is proved. Moreover, the uniqueness of the weak solution is proved based on the optimal boundary value condition.
