Navier–Stokes Equations and Bulk Viscosity for a Polyatomic Gas with Temperature-Dependent Specific Heats

A system of Navier–Stokes-type equations with two temperatures is derived, for a polyatomic gas with temperature-dependent specific heats (thermally perfect gas), from the ellipsoidal statistical (ES) model of the Boltzmann equation extended to such a gas. Subsequently, the system is applied to the...
