The study of nonlinear gas transport in rarefied condition or associated with the microscale length of the geometry has emerged as an interesting topic in recent years. Along with the DSMC method, several fluid dynamic models that come under the general category of the moment method or the Chapman-Enskog method have been used for this type of problem. In the present study, on the basis of Eu's generalized hydrodynamics, a computational model for diatomic gases is proposed. The preliminary result indicates that the bulk viscosity plays a considerable role in fundamental flow problems such as the shock structure and shear flow. The general properties of the constitutive equations are obtained through a simple mathematical analysis. With an iterative computational algorithm of the constitutive equations, numerical solutions for the multi-dimensional problem can be obtained.
