MOLECULAR DYNAMIC SIMULATION OF HEAT TRANSFER OF GASES INASPACECRAFTHEATPIPE

摘要

Statistical mechanics have been able to make us understand the connection between microscopicmolecular motion and macroscopic dynamics. Potent tools for finding out about microscopicranges in heat transfer can be obtained from the molecular dynamics technique; this technique issuitable for gas, liquid and solid phase and its interfaces. This study seeks to show how gases aretransported from one end of the heat pipe to another and how heat is distributed during suchtransfer using molecular dynamics.
