Mathematical Models and Methods in Applied Sciences fc World Scientific Publishing Company VARIOUS LEVELS OF MODELS FOR AEROSOLS Pierre-Emmanuel JABIN, email: Departement de Mathematiques et Applications, Ecole Normale Superieure 45 rue d'Ulm, 75230 Paris Cedex 05, France (Leave 1 inch blank space for publisher.)

Two limit behaviours of a simple model of aerosol are considered. The only force acting on aerosol particles is a friction due to the o w of gas. It is rst proved that in the limit of an innite friction coecien t, the particles are simply advected by the gas. Then we consider very dilute sprays of aerosol, i.e. with distribution functions which are monokinetic (Dirac mass in velocity). This approach leads to a macroscopic system with a free-boundary problem. 1 Introduction The most general model is introduced in the rst subsection under the form of a kinetic equation describing the transport of aerosols and their interaction with the surrounding gas. After that, we detail the two limits of this model which are studied. 1.1 The general model Aerosol particles consist in some small droplets of a given product (typically a liquid or a gas), advected by a gas. The gas has no specic property in which we are interested. We only care about its dynamics because it acts on the aerosol particles of which we want to know the distribution. Here we are interested in dilute sprays for relatively small droplets (of the order of 5–50 m ). This simplies a lot the modelling because we may assume that there onlyexistsaninteractionoftheadvectinggasontheaerosolparticles(noin uence of the particles on the gas and no interaction between the particles). The only force acting on the aerosol particles is therefore a friction with the gas (the particles are not small enough for brownian motion to appear). The dynamics of the gas is fully representedbyagivenvelocityeld u , which is usually a solution of Navier-Stokes 1
