BGK models for inert mixtures: comparison and applications

Consistent BGK models for inert mixtures are compared, first in their kinetic behavior and then versus the hydrodynamic limits that can be derived in different collision-dominated regimes. The comparison is carried out both analytically and numerically, for the latter using an asymptotic preserving semi-Lagrangian scheme for the BGK models. Application to the plane shock wave in a binary mixture of noble gases is also presented.
