Abstract
In this chapter, we summarize the derivation of multicomponent reactive flow equations from the kinetic theory of gases. This derivation can be found in numerous textbooks, usually for monatomic species mixtures and/or inert species. In this chapter, we consider the general case of dilute polyatomic reactive gas mixtures. We refer the reader, however, to classical textbooks on kinetic theory [CC70] [FK72] [Mal90] [Mal91] for detailed comments or intermediate calculations since we only give here a brief description. In addition, mathematical aspects of Boltzmann-type equations are out of the scope of this book, and we refer the reader to [Cer88], [DL89], [Gru93], [CIP94], [GG95], and [GM97].
