Abstract

We derive rigorously the fluid-dynamical equations for the one-dimensional discrete velocity model, considered in [1], directly from the BBGKY hierarchy of this model. The model we consider is not a mathematical one like the well-known Broadwell models of the Boltzmann equation [2]. It is also different from the Broadwell model of the BBGKY hierarchy considered in [3], the stochastic model dealt with in [4] and lattice gas cellular automata as well ( see e.g.[5] and references therein). It is a deterministic model which can be regarded as physically realistic. The scheme that we present is apparently the first where the fluid limit for such a system is obtained in a rigorous way from the BBGKY hierarchy.
