摘要

We give an explicit description of the spectral closure for the three-dimensional linear Boltzmann-BGK equation in terms of the macroscopic fields, density, flow velocity and temperature. This results in a new linear fluid dynamics model which is valid for any relaxation time, thus providing an optimal hydrodynamic model for rarefied gas flow over a large range of Knudsen numbers. The non-local exact fluid dynamics equations are compared to the Euler, Navier–Stokes and Burnett equations. Our results are based on a detailed spectral analysis of the linearized Boltzmann-BGK operator together with a suitable choice of spectral projection.
