We write a model for an aerosol (air/particle mixture) in the respiratory system for a fixed or moving domain. It consists of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations for the air and the Vlasov equation for the particles, coupled through a drag force. We propose a discretisation of the model and investigate fundamential properties of the numerical scheme.
