Consider the nonlinear heat equation (E): u t - Δ u = | u | p - 1 u + b | u | q . We prove that for a large class of radial, positive, nonglobal solutions of (E), one has the blowup estimates C ( T - t ) - 1 / ( p - 1 ) | | u ( t ) | | C ( T - t ) - 1 / ( p - 1 ) . Also, as an application of our method, we obtain the same upper estimate if u only satisfies the nonlinear parabolic inequality u t - u x x u p . More general inequalities of the form u t - u x x f ( u ) with, for instance, f ( u ) = ( 1 + u ) l o g p ( 1 + u ) are also treated. Our results show that for solutions of the parabolic inequality, one has essentially the same estimates as for solutions of the ordinary differential inequality v̇ ≥ f(v).

AB - Consider the nonlinear heat equation (E): $u_{t} - Δu = |u|^{p-1}u + b|∇u|^{q}$. We prove that for a large class of radial, positive, nonglobal solutions of (E), one has the blowup estimates $C₁(T-t)^{-1/(p-1)} ≤ ||u(t)||_{∞} ≤ C₂(T-t)^{-1/(p-1)}$. Also, as an application of our method, we obtain the same upper estimate if u only satisfies the nonlinear parabolic inequality $u_{t} - u_{xx} ≥ u^{p}$. More general inequalities of the form $u_{t} - u_{xx} ≥ f(u)$ with, for instance, $f(u) = (1+u)log^{p}(1+u)$ are also treated. Our results show that for solutions of the parabolic inequality, one has essentially the same estimates as for solutions of the ordinary differential inequality v̇ ≥ f(v).
