Abstract
The physical effects associated with the implementation of two differe nt types of thermal (or stochastic) walls that could be used in comput er simulations are considered. The effects of these boundary condition s are first demonstrated using the ideal-gas model and then their infl uence on interacting particles (with an example of hard spheres) is di scussed.
