The kinetic chemical equilibrium regime

We investigate reactive gas mixtures in the kinetic chemical equilibrium regime. Our starting point is a generalized Boltzmann equation with a chemical source term valid for arbitrary reaction mechanisms and yielding a positive entropy production. We rst study the Enskog expansion in the kinetic chemical equilibrium regime. We derive a new set of macroscopic equations in the zerothand rst-order...
