<strong>Lattice</strong> <strong>Boltzmann</strong> solvers <strong>and</strong> applications<br />

Simplified kinetic models<br />

Andries-Aoki-Perthame (AAP) model<br />

The full <strong>Boltzmann</strong> equations for gas mixtures are much more<br />

formidable to analyze than the equation for a single-species<br />

system [3, 4, 5, 6].<br />

A popular approach is to derive simplified model <strong>Boltzmann</strong><br />

equations which are more manageable to solve. Numerous model<br />

equations are influenced by Maxwell’s approach to solve the<br />

<strong>Boltzmann</strong> equation by using the properties of the Maxwell<br />

molecule <strong>and</strong> the linearized <strong>Boltzmann</strong> equation [12].<br />

The simplest model equations for a binary mixture is that by Gross<br />

<strong>and</strong> Krook [13, 12], which is an extension of the<br />

single-relaxation-time model for a pure system — the celebrated<br />

Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) model.<br />

Many other models exist: Sirovich [14, 15], Hamel [16, 17], ...<br />
