| contents | This article introduces a conservative formulation of the Standard Enskog equation and the Povzner equation, both of which generalize the Boltzmann equation by incorporating the contribution of particle volume in collisions. The primary result expresses these collision integrals as the divergence with respect to the velocity variable v of a mass current. Moreover, the terms v C[f,f] and |v|^2 C[f,f], where C[f,f] denotes the Standard Enskog or Povzner collision integral, are represented as phase-space divergences (that is, divergences in both position and velocity) of corresponding momentum and energy currents. This work extends Villani's earlier result (Math. Modelling Numer. Anal. M2AN 33 (1999), 209--227) for the classical Boltzmann equation to the case of dense gases. |
