We prove the convergence of a conservative and entropic discrete-velocity model for the Bathnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) equation. In this model, the approximation of the Maxwellian is based on a discrete entropy minimization principle. The main difficulty, due to its implicit definition, is to prove tha

We consider a time and spatial explicit discretisation scheme for the Boltzmannequation. We prove some Maxwellian bounds on the resulting approximated solution anddeduce its convergence using a new time-discrete averaging lemma. 2003 Éditions scientifiques et médicales Elsevier SAS MSC: 35A35; 65L
We present new numerical models for computing transitional or rarefied gas flows as described by the Boltzmann-BGK and BGK-ES equations. We first propose a new discrete-velocity model, based on the entropy minimization principle. This model satisfies the conservation laws and the entropy dissipation
## Abstract This paper discusses the convergence of a new discrete‐velocity model to the Boltzmann equation. First the consistency of the collision integral approximation is proved. Based on this we prove the convergence of solutions for a modified model to renormalized solutions of the Boltzmann e
