Abstract
Abstract The paper gives a derivation of a new one-dimensional non-stationary nonlinear system of moment equations, that depend on the flight velocity and the surface temperature of an aircraft. Maxwell microscopic condition is approximated for the distribution function on moving boundary, when one fraction of molecules reflected from the surface specular and another fraction diffusely with Maxwell distribution. Moreover, macroscopic boundary conditions for the moment system of equations depend on evenness or oddness of approximation $${f}_{k}(t,x,c)$$ f k ( t , x , c ) , where $${f}_{k}(t,x,c)$$ f k ( t , x , c ) is partial expansion sum of the molecules distribution function over eigenfunctions of linearized collision operator around local Maxwell distribution. The formulation of initial and boundary value problem for the system of moment equations in the first and second approximations is described. Existence and uniqueness of the solution for the above-mentioned problem using macroscopic boundary conditions in the space of functions $$C\left(\left[0,T\right];{L}^{2}\left[-a,a\right]\right)$$ C 0 , T ; L 2 - a , a are proved.
