Consider the nonlinear heat equation (E): $u_t-\Delta u={\left|u\right|}^{p-1}u+b{\left|\nabla u\right|}^q$. We prove that for a large class of radial, positive, nonglobal solutions of (E), one has the blowup estimates $C₁{(T-t)}^{-1/(p-1)}{\le \left|\right|u\left(t\right)\left|\right|}_{\infty }\le C₂{(T-t)}^{-1/(p-1)}$. Also, as an application of our method, we obtain the same upper estimate if u only satisfies the nonlinear parabolic inequality $u_t-u_{xx}\ge u^p$. More general inequalities of the form $u_t-u_{xx}\ge f\left(u\right)$ with, for instance, $f\left(u\right)=(1+u)lo{g}^p(1+u)$ 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...
