Abstract

We consider the non-reactive elastic Boltzmann equation for multicomponent gaseous mixtures. We deduce, under the standard diffusive scaling, that well prepared initial conditions lead to solutions satisfying the Maxwell-Stefan diffusion equations in the vanishing Mach and Knudsen numbers limit.
