Abstract: We study the convergence of a class of asymptotic preserving numerical schemes initially proposed by F. Filbet & S. Jin cite{filb1} and G. Dimarco & L. Pareschi cite{DimarcoP} in the context of nonlinear and stiff kinetic equations. Here, our analysis is devoted to the approximation of a system of transport equations with a nonlinear source term, for which the asymptotic limit is given by a conservation laws. We investigate the convergence of the approximate solution $(uep{s}_h,vep{s}_h)$ to a nonlinear relaxation system, where $eps>0$ is a physical parameter and $h$ represents the discretization parameter. Uniform convergence with respect to $eps$ and $h$ is proven and error estimates are also obtained. Finally, several numerical tests are performed to illustrate the accuracy and efficiency of such a scheme.
