Abstract
We study, by means of numerical simulations, the model of dissipative parti cle dynamics with energy conservation for the simple case of thermal conduc tion. It is shown that the model displays correct equilibrium fluctuations and reproduces Fourier law. The connection between "mesoscopic coarse-grain ing" and "resolution" is clarified.
