Abstract
A model kinetic equation approximating the Boltzmann equation in a wide range of nonequilibrium gas states was constructed to describe rarefied gas flows. The kinetic model was based on a distribution function depending on the absolute velocity of the gas particles. Highly efficient in numerical computations, the model kinetic equation was used to compute a shock wave structure. The numerical results were compared with experimental data for argon.
