Knudsen Number Effects on Two-Dimensional Rayleigh–Taylor Instability in Compressible Fluid: Based on a Discrete Boltzmann Method [PDF]
Based on the framework of our previous work [H.L. Lai et al., Phys. Rev. E, 94, 023106 (2016)], we continue to study the effects of Knudsen number on two-dimensional Rayleigh–Taylor (RT) instability in compressible fluid via the discrete Boltzmann method.

Generalized Knudsen number for unsteady fluid flow [PDF]
We explore the scaling behavior of an unsteady flow that is generated by an oscillating body of finite size in a gas. If the gas is gradually rarefied, the Navier-Stokes equations begin to fail and a kinetic description of the flow becomes more ...

Measurement of Heat Transfer from Anodic Oxide Film on Aluminum in High Knudsen Number Flows [PDF]
The heat transfer in vacuum depends on the gas−surface interaction. In this study, the heat flux from anodic oxide films on aluminum with different anodizing times through a gas confined between two surfaces with different temperatures was studied.

Drag on Gasborne Nanoparticles in the High Knudsen Number Regime
At small Knudsen numbers (continuum regime) and sufficiently small Reynolds numbers, the friction resistance of particles with the carrier gas is described by means of the Stokes formula assuming no slip of the gas ...

THE INFLUENCE OF GRAVITY ON A MICROFLUIDIC MIXED CONVECTION BY APPLYING LATTICE BOLTZMANN METHOD [PDF]
In this article the effects of gravity on the mixed convection of a microflow is studied numerically by using lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). To do this, the hydrodynamic boundary condition equations should also be modified.

Mechanism of tangential Knudsen force at different Knudsen numbers
In a rarefied gas with a non-uniform temperature field, one phenomenon that arises is the tangential Knudsen force. Various research studies have investigated the tangential Knudsen force but have been limited to specific cases. In this study, we investigated the mechanism of the thermally induced tangential Knudsen force, using theoretical analysis ...

Nanoconfined Bulk-Gas Transport Behavior over a Wide Range of Knudsen Number
Shale matrix, located at Guizhou Province, is rich in nanopores, and gas slippage takes place during shale gas development, resulting in inapplicability of the classical Navier-Stokes equation.

Apparent permeability in tight gas reservoirs combining rarefied gas flow in a microtube
In tight gas reservoirs, the major flow channels are composed of micro/nanopores in which the rarefaction effect is prominent and the traditional Darcy law is not appropriate for gas flow.

Adaptive wave-particle decomposition in UGKWP method for high-speed flow simulations
With wave-particle decomposition, a unified gas-kinetic wave-particle (UGKWP) method has been developed for multiscale flow simulations. With the variation of the cell Knudsen number, the UGKWP method captures the transport process in all flow regimes ...
