Beyond the Navier-Stokes equation: Including random thermal fluctuations

  • Published:
Acta Physica Hungarica New Series Heavy Ion Physics

Abstract

Dissipation and fluctuation is analyzed in discretized systems with external and internal heat bath. Discretized and continuum dissipation and fluctuation theorems are derived for both cases. It is shown that the continuum limit of the internal heat bath case leads to the Navier-Stokes equation.
