Lattice-Boltzmann Models for heat transfer

A multispeed heat transfer lattice Boltzmann model is presented. The model possesses the perfect gas state equation with arbitrary special heat ratio. The macroscopic conservation equations are derived by the Chapman-Enskog method. The one dimensional simulation for the sinusoidal energy distributions are compared with the theoretical results, showing good agreement. The theoretical conductivity in the energy equation is in accordance with the simulations.
