The place of the Boltzmann kinetic equation on the stairs of model reduction from microscopic dynamics to macroscopic continuum dynamics (illustration to the content of the book)

The Boltzmann equation or Boltzmann transport equation (BTE) describes the statistical behaviour of a thermodynamic system not in a state of equilibrium, devised by Ludwig Boltzmann in 1872.

玻尔兹曼方程或玻尔兹曼输运方程(BTE)描述了一个不处于平衡状态的热力学系统的统计行为，由路德维希·玻尔兹曼于1872年提出。

The Boltzmann equation or Boltzmann transport equation (BTE) describes the statistical behaviour of a thermodynamic system not in a state of equilibrium, devised by Ludwig Boltzmann in 1872.

The classic example of such a system is a fluid with temperature gradients in space causing heat to flow from hotter regions to colder ones, by the random but biased transport of the particles making up that fluid. In the modern literature the term Boltzmann equation is often used in a more general sense, referring to any kinetic equation that describes the change of a macroscopic quantity in a thermodynamic system, such as energy, charge or particle number.

这种系统的典型例子是具有空间温度梯度的流体，通过流体中粒子的随机但有偏的运动，使得热量从较热的区域流向较冷的区域。在现代文献中，玻尔兹曼方程这个术语通常用于更一般的情形，指的是任何描述热力学系统中宏观量（例如能量、电荷或粒子数）变化的动力学方程。

In the modern literature the term Boltzmann equation is often used in a more general sense, referring to any kinetic equation that describes the change of a macroscopic quantity in a thermodynamic system, such as energy, charge or particle number.

The equation arises not by analyzing the individual positions and momenta of each particle in the fluid but rather by considering a probability distribution for the position and momentum of a typical particle—that is, the probability that the particle occupies a given very small region of space (mathematically the volume element [math]\displaystyle{ \mathrm{d}^3 \bf{r} }[/math]) centered at the position [math]\displaystyle{ \bf{r} }[/math], and has momentum nearly equal to a given momentum vector [math]\displaystyle{ \bf{p} }[/math] (thus occupying a very small region of momentum space [math]\displaystyle{ \mathrm{d}^3 \bf{p} }[/math]), at an instant of time.

方程的导出不是通过分析流体中每个粒子的单独位置和动量，而是通过考虑一个典型粒子的位置和动量的概率分布——即粒子某一时刻位于给定位置的小邻域（数学上的体积元[math]\displaystyle{ \mathrm{d}^3 \bf{r} }[/math]）、在动量空间占据给定动量矢量[math]\displaystyle{ \bf{p} }[/math]的小邻域（[math]\displaystyle{ \mathrm{d}^3 \bf{p} }[/math]）的概率。一个给定的非常小的空间区域的概率(数学上是体积元素 < math > mathrm { d } ^ 3 bf { r } </math >) ，动量几乎等于给定的动量矢量 < math > (因此在瞬间占据了一个非常小的动量空间 mathrm { d }3 bf/math >)。

The Boltzmann equation can be used to determine how physical quantities change, such as heat energy and momentum, when a fluid is in transport. One may also derive other properties characteristic to fluids such as viscosity, thermal conductivity, and electrical conductivity (by treating the charge carriers in a material as a gas).

玻尔兹曼方程可以用来确定流体在运输过程中物理量如何变化，比如热能和动量。人们还可以推导出流体的其他特性，如粘度、热导率和电导率(通过将材料中的载流子当作气体来处理)。参见对流扩散方程。

One may also derive other properties characteristic to fluids such as viscosity, thermal conductivity, and electrical conductivity (by treating the charge carriers in a material as a gas). See also convection–diffusion equation.

The equation is a nonlinear integro-differential equation, and the unknown function in the equation is a probability density function in six-dimensional space of a particle position and momentum. The problem of existence and uniqueness of solutions is still not fully resolved, but some recent results are quite promising.

玻尔兹曼方程是一个非线性积分微分方程，方程中的未知函数是位置和动量六维空间中的一个概率密度函数。方程解的存在唯一性仍然是未完全解决的问题，但是近期的一些结果是很有希望的。

Overview 概述

The phase space and density function 相空间和密度函数

The set of all possible positions r and momenta p is called the phase space of the system; in other words a set of three coordinates for each position coordinate x, y, z, and three more for each momentum component p_x, p_y, p_z. The entire space is 6-dimensional: a point in this space is (r, p) = (x, y, z, p_x, p_y, p_z), and each coordinate is parameterized by time t. The small volume ("differential volume element") is written

系统所有可能的位置r和动量p的集合称为系统的相空间，每个位置是三个坐标 x，y，z 的集合，另外有三个坐标表示每个动量分量 p_x, p_y, p_z。整个空间是6维的：空间中的一个点是(r, p) = (x, y, z, p_x, p_y, p_z)，每个坐标由时间 t 参数化。小体积元(“微分体积元”)写作

Since the probability of N molecules which all have r and p within [math]\displaystyle{ \mathrm{d}^3\bf{r} }[/math] [math]\displaystyle{ \mathrm{d}^3\bf{p} }[/math] is in question, at the heart of the equation is a quantity f which gives this probability per unit phase-space volume, or probability per unit length cubed per unit momentum cubed, at an instant of time t.

where the "force" term corresponds to the forces exerted on the particles by an external influence (not by the particles themselves), the "diff" term represents the diffusion of particles, and "coll" is the collision term – accounting for the forces acting between particles in collisions. Expressions for each term on the right side are provided below. The assumption in the BGK approximation is that the effect of molecular collisions is to force a non-equilibrium distribution function at a point in physical space back to a Maxwellian equilibrium distribution function and that the rate at which this occurs is proportional to the molecular collision frequency. The Boltzmann equation is therefore modified to the BGK form:

如果“力”这个术语对应于外部影响(而不是粒子本身)施加在粒子上的力，“ diff”这个术语代表粒子的扩散，“ coll”是碰撞术语——解释粒子之间在碰撞中的作用力。下面提供了右边每个术语的表达式。BGK 近似中的假设是，分子碰撞的效果是迫使物理空间中某一点的非平衡分布函数回到马克斯韦尔平衡分布函数，而这种情况发生的速率与分子碰撞频率成正比。因此，《玻尔兹曼方程修改为 BGK 格式:

where the last term is zero, since A is conserved in a collision. Letting [math]\displaystyle{ A = m }[/math], the mass of the particle, the integrated Boltzmann equation becomes the conservation of mass equation: including the formation of the light elements in Big Bang nucleosynthesis, the production of dark matter and baryogenesis. It is not a priori clear that the state of a quantum system can be characterized by a classical phase space density f. However, for a wide class of applications a well-defined generalization of f exists which is the solution of an effective Boltzmann equation that can be derived from first principles of quantum field theory.

The Boltzmann equation is of use in galactic dynamics. A galaxy, under certain assumptions, may be approximated as a continuous fluid; its mass distribution is then represented by f; in galaxies, physical collisions between the stars are very rare, and the effect of gravitational collisions can be neglected for times far longer than the age of the universe.

where Γ^α_βγ is the Christoffel symbol of the second kind (this assumes there are no external forces, so that particles move along geodesics in the absence of collisions), with the important subtlety that the density is a function in mixed contravariant-covariant (xⁱ, p_i) phase space as opposed to fully contravariant (xⁱ, pⁱ) phase space.

其中 γ < sup > α < βγ 是第二类 Christoffel 符号(假设没有外力，因此粒子在没有碰撞的情况下沿测地线运动) ，其中重要的微妙之处在于密度是混合逆变-协变(x < sup > i ，p < sub > i )相空间中的函数，而不是完全逆变(x < sup > i ，p )相空间中的函数。

In physical cosmology the fully covariant approach has been used to study the cosmic microwave background radiation. More generically the study of processes in the early universe often attempt to take into account the effects of quantum mechanics and general relativity. this analytical approach provides insight, but is not generally usable in practical problems. 20世纪90年代物理宇宙学，完全协变方法被用于研究宇宙微波背景辐射。更一般地说，对早期宇宙过程的研究往往试图考虑量子力学和广义相对论的影响。这种分析方法提供了洞察力，但在实际问题中通常不能使用。 [math]\displaystyle{ \begin{align} d f & = \frac{\partial f}{\partial t} \, dt Instead, numerical methods (including finite elements) are generally used to find approximate solutions to the various forms of the Boltzmann equation.

The problem of developing mathematically the limiting processes, which lead from the atomistic view (represented by Boltzmann's equation) to the laws of motion of continua, is an important part of Hilbert's sixth problem. 在接近局部均衡的情况下，玻尔兹曼方程的解可以用一个克努森数的渐近展开表示(Chapman-Enskog 展开式)。这个展开式的前两项给出了欧拉方程和纳维－斯托克斯方程。较高的项有奇点。从原子观点(以玻尔兹曼方程为代表)到连续统运动定律的极限过程的数学发展问题，是希尔伯特第六个问题的重要组成部分。 +\frac{\partial f}{\partial z} \, dz \right) +\left(\frac{\partial f}{\partial p_x} \, dp_x +\frac{\partial f}{\partial p_y} \, dp_y +\frac{\partial f}{\partial p_z} \, dp_z \lt !--*BGK equation \lt ! -- * BGK 方程 \right)\\[5pt] & = \frac{\partial f}{\partial t}dt +\nabla f \cdot d\mathbf{r} + \frac{\partial f}{\partial \mathbf{p}}\cdot d\mathbf{p} \\[5pt] & = \frac{\partial f}{\partial t}dt +\nabla f \cdot \frac{\mathbf{p}}{m}dt + \frac{\partial f}{\partial \mathbf{p}}\cdot \mathbf{F} \, dt \end{align} }[/math]

Very inexpensive introduction to the modern framework (starting from a formal deduction from Liouville and the Bogoliubov–Born–Green–Kirkwood–Yvon hierarchy (BBGKY) in which the Boltzmann equation is placed). Most statistical mechanics textbooks like Huang still treat the topic using Boltzmann's original arguments. To derive the equation, these books use a heuristic explanation that does not bring out the range of validity and the characteristic assumptions that distinguish Boltzmann's from other transport equations like Fokker–Planck or Landau equations.

In this context, F(r, t) is the force field acting on the particles in the fluid, and m is the mass of the particles. The term on the right hand side is added to describe the effect of collisions between particles; if it is zero then the particles do not collide. The collisionless Boltzmann equation, where individual collisions are replaced with long-range aggregated interactions, e.g. Coulomb interactions, is often called the Vlasov equation.

This equation is more useful than the principal one above, yet still incomplete, since f cannot be solved unless the collision term in f is known. This term cannot be found as easily or generally as the others – it is a statistical term representing the particle collisions, and requires knowledge of the statistics the particles obey, like the Maxwell–Boltzmann, Fermi–Dirac or Bose–Einstein distributions.

A key insight applied by Boltzmann was to determine the collision term resulting solely from two-body collisions between particles that are assumed to be uncorrelated prior to the collision. This assumption was referred to by Boltzmann as the "" and is also known as the "molecular chaos assumption". Under this assumption the collision term can be written as a momentum-space integral over the product of one-particle distribution functions:

Since much of the challenge in solving the Boltzmann equation originates with the complex collision term, attempts have been made to "model" and simplify the collision term. The best known model equation is due to Bhatnagar, Gross and Krook. The assumption in the BGK approximation is that the effect of molecular collisions is to force a non-equilibrium distribution function at a point in physical space back to a Maxwellian equilibrium distribution function and that the rate at which this occurs is proportional to the molecular collision frequency. The Boltzmann equation is therefore modified to the BGK form:
