Tóm tắt

The aim of this article is to construct a BGK-type model for polyatomic gases which gives in the hydrodynamic limit the proper transport coefficient. Its construction relies upon a systematic procedure: minimizing Boltzmann entropy under suitable moments constraints (Levermore in J Stat Phys 83:1021–1065, 1996; Brull and Schneider in Cont Mech Thermodyn 20(2):63–74, 2008). The obtained model corresponds to the ellipsoidal statistical model introduced in Andries et al. (Eur J Mech B Fluids 19:813–830, 2000). We also study the return to equilibrium of its solutions in the homogeneous case.
