A Consistent BGK Model with Velocity-Dependent Collision Frequency for Gas Mixtures

Please always quote using this URN: urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-269146
  • We derive a multi-species BGK model with velocity-dependent collision frequency for a non-reactive, multi-component gas mixture. The model is derived by minimizing a weighted entropy under the constraint that the number of particles of each species, total momentum, and total energy are conserved. We prove that this minimization problem admits a unique solution for very general collision frequencies. Moreover, we prove that the model satisfies an H-Theorem and characterize the form of equilibrium.
