A free argon jet flow accompanied by small clusters formation is studied with the direct simulation Monte Carlo method. Some near-continuum flow regimes characterized by Knudsen numbers in the 2×10−4−2×10−3 range are considered. A model for the argon clusters' growth/decay is proposed, taking into account the phase state of the clusters. The model consists of a chain of reactions leading to the clusters' formation, including the clusters' growth via triple/pair collisions of particles, and the clusters decay according to the collisional/unimolecular mechanism. The cluster size distributions in the jet far field are obtained. The results are compared with two experimental datasets. Good agreement is shown for most of the considered range of parameters. The triple particle collisions' influence on the argon clusters growth process is studied, and their important role in small cluster formation is demonstrated. It has been established that the cluster formation process is limited to an enough small spatial zone near the source outlet, of the order of several exit orifice diameters. The simulation shows a significant influence of cluster formation on the temperature and Mach number distributions, and a weak influence on the flow velocity. The formed clusters' translational temperatures and their velocities are close to the argon atoms' corresponding parameters. A non-equilibrium state, featured by a significant difference between the clusters' internal temperatures and the flow temperature, develops with distance from the source outlet.
