The recently developed FN method of solving problems in particle transport theory is used to establish a concise and accurate solution for the flow of a rarefied gas between two parallel plates. The Bhatnagar, Gross, and Krook model is used, and numerical results are given for a wide range of the Knudsen number.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
