Abstract: In the paper, we discuss the combined semiclassical and relaxation-time limits of a multidimensional isentropic quantum hydrodynamical model for semiconductors with small momentum relaxation time and Planck constant. The quantum hydrodynamic equations consist of the isentropic Euler equations for the particle density and current density including the quantum Bohn potential and a momentum relaxation term. The momentum equation is highly nonlinear and contains a dispersive term with third-order derivatives. The equations are self-consistently coupled to the Poisson equation for the electrostatic potential. With the help of the Maxwell-type iteration, we prove that, as the Planck constant and the relaxation time tend to zero, periodic initial-value problems of a scaled isentropic quantum hydrodynamic model have unique smooth solutions existing in the time interval where the classical drift-diffusion models have smooth solutions.
