We calculate the systematic average speed of the adiabatic piston and a
thermal Brownian motor, introduced in [Van den Broeck, Kawai and Meurs,
\emph{Microscopic analysis of a thermal Brownian motor}, to appear in Phys.
Rev. Lett.], by an expansion of the Boltzmann equation and compare with the
exact numerical solution.
