We prove that all disposable parameters appearing in the Maxwellian attractors may be determined in terms of the actual macroscopic fields in such a way that correct Maxwellian equilibria and collision invariants are preserved, as well as the validity of the H-theorem. Evolution equations for species densities, velocities and temperatures are also derived, and some numerical examples are shown in space homogeneous conditions.

Abstract

We generalize the BGK model proposed in Bisi and Cáceres (2016) to a mixture constituted by both monoatomic and polyatomic gas species with each polyatomic one being characterized by its own number of discrete internal energy levels, to model its non-translational degrees of freedom. We prove that all disposable parameters appearing in the Maxwellian attractors may be determined in terms of the actual macroscopic fields in such a way that correct Maxwellian equilibria and collision invariants are preserved, as well as the validity of the H-theorem. Evolution equations for species densities, velocities and temperatures are also derived, and some numerical examples are shown in space homogeneous conditions.
