A Heat Transfer Problem in Rarefied Gas Dynamics

摘要

In this work, we consider heat transfer in a rarefied gas that is confined in a microchannel defined by two parallel plates at which arbitrary and unequal temperature and accommodation are allowed. In particular, the temperature perturbation, density perturbation, and heat flow are obtained by a discrete-ordinates solution developed for a kinetic model, the Gross-Jackson model, of the linearized Boltzmann equation.
