Based on kinetic formulation for scalar conservation laws, we present implicit kinetic schemes. For time stepping these schemes require resolution of linear systems of algebraic equations. The scheme is conservative at steady states. We prove that if time marching procedure converges to some steady state solution, then the implicit kinetic scheme converges to some entropy steady state solution. We give sufficient condition of the convergence of time marching procedure. For scalar conservation laws with a stiff source term we construct a stiff numerical scheme with discontinuous artificial viscosity coefficients that ensure the scheme to be equilibrium conserving. We couple the developed implicit approach with the stiff space discretization, thus providing improved stability and equilibrium conservation property in the resulting scheme. Numerical results demonstrate high computational capabilities (stability for large CFL numbers, fast convergence, accuracy) of the developed implicit approach. © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
