We consider the evolution of a multicomponent medium: stars and gas clouds embedded in an ambient gaseous medium. The stars and gas clouds are treated stellar dynamically, using a velocity moment expansion of the Boltzmann equation. The basic equations and interaction terms are discussed. Examples of 2-D numerical calculations are presented (see also Kunze et al., this meeting).
