The present study deals with the shock wave profiles in the macroscopic multi‐temperature (MT) model of binary gaseous mixtures. For that purpose we have adopted the hyperbolic model developed within the framework of extended thermodynamics [1] in which we include viscosity and thermal conductivity to eliminate restriction on parameters. This allows us to compare our results with more sophisticated kinetic solutions, which were computed for hypothetic mixtures of gases [2]. Numerical implementation of the MT model is considerably simpler than the one for Boltzmann equations for mixtures or the direct simulation Monte Carlo method (DSMC).
