Abstract Some results related to 2D Navier–Stokes equations when the external force contains hereditary characteristics involving unbounded delays are analyzed. First, the existence and uniqueness of solutions is proved by Galerkin approximations and the energy method. The existence of stationary solution is then established by means of the Lax–Milgram theorem and the Schauder fixed point theorem. The local stability analysis of stationary solutions is studied by several different methods: the classical Lyapunov function method, the Razumikhin–Lyapunov technique and by constructing appropriate Lyapunov functionals. Finally, we also verify the polynomial stability of the stationary solution in a particular case of unbounded variable delay. Exponential stability in this infinite delay setting remains as an open problem.
