Abstract

We propose a Discrete Duality Finite Volume scheme (DDFV for short) for an energy transport model for semiconductors. As in the continuous case, thanks to a change of variables into the so-called "entropic variables", we are able to prove a discrete entropy-dissipation estimate, which gives a priori estimates for the problem. We perform some numerical tests for the 2D ballistic diode, by comparing the Chen model and the Lyumkis model
