Abstract
We discuss the application of Mathematica for automated, symbolic calculation of the cumulant equations of arbitrary order. Like moment equations, these partial differential equations—describing fluid motion on a mesoscopic scale—may be considered an approximation to the Boltzmann equation, a highly nonlinear integro-differential equation that describes the motion of gases at a microscopic scale. Though the cumulant method provides a simple and compact presentation of the theory, actual calculation of very high order equations turns out to be a challenging task.
