Qualitative properties of solutions of a two point extension of the Boltzmann kinetic equation and of solutions of the Frey–Salmon two point kinetic equation are investigated. Our attention is focussed on: (i) compatibility of the long time behaviour of solutions with equilibrium thermodynamics, (ii) the thermodynamic equation of state implied by the two point kinetic equations, (iii) one point kinetic equations whose solutions approximate well the solutions to the two point kinetic equations for large time, and (iv) transport coefficients implied by the two point kinetic equations.

Abstract Two-dimensional binary gas mixture outflow from a vessel into vacuum through a thin slit is studied on the basis of direct solution of the Boltzmann kinetic equation. For evaluation of collision integrals in the Boltzmann equation a conservative projection method is used. Numerical simulation of a two-dimensional argon-neon gas mixture outflow from a vessel into vacuum was performed. Graphs of mixture components flow rate dependence on time during the flow formation, as well as fields of molecular density and temperature for steady-state regime, were obtained.

The transport theory of a high-energy ion species injected isotropically in a magnetized plasma is considered for arbitrary ratios of the high-energy ion cyclotron frequency to the collisional slowing down time. The assumptions of (i) low fractional density of the high-energy species and (ii) average ion speed faster than the thermal ions and slower than the electrons are used to decouple the kinetic equation for the high-energy species from the kinetic equations for background ions and electrons. The kinetic equation is solved by a Chapman–Enskog expansion in the strength of the gradients; an equation for the first correction to the lowest-order distribution function is obtained without scaling a priori the collision frequency with respect to the gyrofrequency. Various transport coefficients are explicitly calculated for the two cases of a weakly and a strongly magnetized plasma.

For a system of particles with a dissipative interaction we consider the Boltzmann type kinetic equation for granular gases. A numerical solution of the Cauchy problem for the Boltzmann type kinetic equation is constructed in two dimensional space and its stability is investigated.
