In the paper we discuss the transition from kinetic theory to macroscopic fluid equations, where the macroscopic equations are defined as aymptotic limits of a kinetic equation. This relation can be used to derive computationally efficient domain decomposition schemes for the simulaion of rarefied gas flows close to the continuum limit. Moreover, we present some basic ideas for the derivation of kinetic induced numerical schemes for macroscopic equations, namely kinetic schemes for general conservation laws as well as Lattice-Boltzmann methods for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations.

Ziel des Modellversuchs war es, zu untersuchen, welche Ergebnisse der mathematischen Forschung an Universitäten für den Praktiker besser zugänglich gemacht werden sollten und wie dies geschehen kann. Als Zielgruppen einer solchen Bildungsaufgabe waren insbesondere Ingenieure in den Forschungs- und Entwicklungsabteilungen der Industrie und Studenten der Mathematik und Technik (im Sinne einer mehr praxisbezogenen Ausbildung) vorgesehen; in organisatorischer Hinsicht war an ein Fernstudium gedacht.
Particle methods to simulate rarefied gas flows have found an increasing interest in Computational Fluid Dynamics during the last decade, see for example [1], [2], [3] and [4]. The general goal is to develop numerical schemes which are reliable enough to substitute real windtunnel experiments, needed for example in space research, by computer experiments. In order to achieve this goal one needs numerical methods solving the Boltzmann equation including all important physical effects. In general this means 3D computations for a chemically reacting rarefied gas. With codes of this kind at hand, Boltzmann simulation becomes a powerful tool in studying rarefied gas phenomena.
