Abstract

Abstract The one-dimensional stationary BGK model equation is studied on a finite interval with Maxwellian boundary data. It is shown that solutions exist if boundary data are large enough in flow velocity or temperature. The main ingredient of proof is a lower bound of the total energy obtained from the conservation law, which is used to derive an a priori estimate of the local Maxwellian for small velocity. The proof does not work for small data.
