Abstract

The present communication is devoted to the calculation of some explicit stationary solutions of the four-velocity Broadwell kinetic model in two spatial dimensions. The method of the truncated Painlevé expansion is employed and two classes of solutions are constructed. It is shown that these solutions satisfy the special boundary value problem in a rectangle.
