β¦ Synopsis
This work is concerned with an extension of the classical compressible Euler model of fluid dynamics in which the fluid internal energy is a measure-valued quantity. This model can be derived from the hydrodynamic limit of a kinetic model involving a specific class of collision operators. In the present paper, we investigate diffusive corrections of this fluid dynamical model derived from a Chapman-Enskog expansion of the kinetic model, in the case where the collision time depends on the particle energy in the fluid frame. We show that the closure relations for the stress tensor and heat flux vector differ from their expression in the usual Navier-Stokes model. We argue why such a feature could be used as a tool towards an understanding of fluid turbulence from kinetic theory. ο 2001 Γditions scientifiques et mΓ©dicales Elsevier SAS

Similarities and differences in the wide range density and temperature dependencies of the viscosity and thermal conductivity coefficients
The self-diffusion coeffkient, shear viscosity and thermal conductivity of the Lennard-Jones fluid have been determined over essentially the whole phase diagram at densities below the solid-fluid coexistence line. This data is fitted to simple expressions developed from those proposed by Dymond.
