The long-time behavior of solutions to different versions of Oseen equations of fluid flow on the 2D torus is analyzed using the concept of hypocoercivity. The considered models are isotropic Oseen equations where the viscosity acts uniformly in all directions and anisotropic Oseen-type equations with different viscosity directions. The hypocoercivity index is determined (if it exists) and it is shown that similar to the finite dimensional case of ordinary differential equations and differential-algebraic equations it characterizes its decay behavior.
