Fokker-Planck-Boltzmann Equation for Dissipative Particle Dynamics

Statistical Mechanics 2009-10-30 v1

Abstract

The algorithm for Dissipative Particle Dynamics (DPD), as modified by Espagnol and Warren, is used as a starting point for proving an H-theorem for the free energy and deriving hydrodynamic equations. Equilibrium and transport properties of the DPD fluid are explicitly calculated in terms of the system parameters for the continuous time version of the model.
