Gas flow condensing or evaporating on its condensed phase is considered on the basis of the discrete models for the Boltamann equation. We consider the steady half space problems and we study numerical this problem. The behavior of the steady solution is clarified: the range of the macroscopic variables at infty and on the condensed phase that allows a steady solution is determined; the profiles of typical steady solution are presented.
