The incompressible Navier–Stokes–Fourier (INSF) system with viscous heating was first derived from the Boltzmann equation in the form of the diffusive scaling by Bardos–Levermore–Ukai–Yang [Kinetic equations: Fluid dynamical limits and viscous heating, Bull. Inst. Math. Acad. Sin.[Formula: see text] 3 (2008) 1–49]. The purpose of this paper is to justify such an incompressible hydrodynamic approximation to the Boltzmann equation in [Formula: see text] setting in a periodic box. Based on an odd–even expansion of the solution with respect to the microscopic velocity, the diffusive coefficients are determined by the INSF system with viscous heating and the super-Burnett functions. More importantly, the remainder of the expansion is proven to decay exponentially in time via an [Formula: see text] approach on the condition that the initial data satisfies the mass, momentum and energy conversation laws.

We are interested in the initial value problem for the Boltzmann equation, when the initial data u0 belongs to a set B0 = {δ0m1 (0,x,v) ≤ u0(x,v) ≤ C0m2 (0,x,v)} where m1, m2 are traveling Maxwellians. We consider soft or Maxwell's interactions with cutoff (7/3 < s ≤ 5) and C0 smaller than a bound depending on the coefficients of m2. We obtain global existence of solutions remaining in a "generalized invariant set" Bt ⊂ B∞, characterized by these particular states.

Sprays are complex flows made of liquid droplets surrounded by a gas. The aim of this paper is to study the local in time well-posedness of a collisional thin spray model, that is a coupling between Euler equations for a perfect gas and a Vlasov–Boltzmann equation for the droplets. We prove the existence and uniqueness of (local in time) solutions for this problem as soon as initial data are smooth enough.
