✦ Synopsis

We have constructed a solution of the BGK model kinetic equation to describe a system subject to uniform shear flow and a thermal gradient. The coexistence between both gradients is maintained in the system if the collision frequency is spatially uniform. In our model this particular case corresponds to the so-called VHP interaction.
