Abstract: We report part of our recent work on viscous hydrodynamics with consistent phase space distribution f ( x , p ) for freeze out. We develop the gradient expansion formalism based on kinetic theory, and with the constraints from the comparison between hydrodynamics and kinetic theory, viscous corrections to f ( x , p ) can be consistently determined order by order. Then with the obtained f ( x , p ), second order viscous hydrodynamical calculations are carried out for elliptic flow v 2 .
