We study the global attractor of the non-autonomous 2D Navier–Stokes system with time-dependent external force $g(x,t)$. We assume that $g(x,t)$ is a translation compact function and the corresponding Grashof number is small. Then the global attractor has a simple structure: it is the closure of all the values of the unique bounded complete trajectory of the Navier–Stokes system. In particular, if $g(x,t)$ is a quasiperiodic function with respect to $t$, then the attractor is a continuous image of a torus. Moreover the...
