Description
The Boltzmann equation [1] that describes the evolution of rarefied gases is one of the main equations of the kinetic theory of gases. For a model of hard spheres, the equation has the form:
$ D(f)= Q(f,f), $
where the left-hand side of the equation is the differential operator:
$ D(f)\equiv\frac{\partial f}{\partial t}+\left(V,\frac{\partial f}{\partial x}\right),$
and the right-hand side of the Boltamann equation is the collision integral,which for the hard spheres model is as follows:
$Q(f,f)\equiv\frac{d^{2}}{2}\int_{R^{3}}dV_{1} \int_{\Sigma} d\alpha |(V-V_{1},\alpha)|\Bigl[f(t,x,V_{1}^{\prime})f(t,x,V^{\prime}) -f(t,x,V)f(t,x,V_{1})\Bigl],$
where $f(t,x,V)$ is the distribution function of particles.
The problem of determination of the exact and approximate solutions of the Boltzmann equation in the explicit form is quite urgent. At present, the sole known exact solution of the Boltzmann equation is an expression usually called the Maxwell distribution or simply Maxwellian (after J. C. Maxwell, Scottish physicist). In the case of Maxwellians $M$, we get
$ D(f)=0, \quad Q(f,f)=0. $
The solution to this equation will be look for in the next form:
$ f(t,x,V)=\sum\limits_{i=1}^{\infty}\varphi_i(t,x)M_i(t,x,V).$
As a measure of the deviation between the parts of the Boltzmann equation we will consider a uniform-integral error of the form:
$\Delta=\sup_{(t,x)\in \mathbb{R}^4}\int_{\mathbb{R}^3}dV \Big|D(f)-Q(f,f)\Big|. $
In the paper[2], we were obtained sufficient conditions for the coefficient functions and hydrodynamic parameters appearing in the distribution,which enable one to make the analyzed error as small as desired.
