Gas dynamics at the micro-scale : a review of progress in hydrodynamic modelling [PDF]
We review some recent developments in the modelling of non-equilibrium (rarefied) gas flows at the micro- and nano-scale using extended hydrodynamic models.

Comparing macroscopic continuum models for rarefied gas dynamics : a new test method [PDF]
We propose a new test method for investigating which macroscopic continuum models, among the many existing models, give the best description of rarefied gas flows over a range of Knudsen numbers.

An open source, parallel DSMC code for rarefied gas flows in arbitrary geometries [PDF]
This paper presents the results of validation of an open source Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) code for general application to rarefied gas flows. The new DSMC code, called dsmcFoam, has been written within the framework of the open source C++ CFD ...

Molecular dynamics simulation on the splitting of shear flow in nanochannels
With the vigorous development of micro-/nanoscience and micro-/nanotechnology, fluid flows at the micro-/nanoscale have become an important research field. The molecular dynamics simulations of Couette flow in a nanochannel are carried out in this paper.

Numerical simulation of a rarefied gas jet emanating from an ion-optical system of the microthruster [PDF]
A jet of ionized rarefied gas escaping from an ion-optical system of a prototype resonator RF-ion thruster into the surrounding space with low background pressure is considered.

Measurement of low-pressure Knudsen force with deflection approximation for gas detection
In this paper, experimental examinations are done to evaluate the thermal Knudsen force in Knudsen gauge at low-pressure condition. This work has focused on the simple technique to visibly observe the induced Knudsen force as main parameter which could ...

On the modelling of isothermal gas flows at the microscale [PDF]
This paper makes two new propositions regarding the modelling of rarefied (non-equilibrium), isothermal gas flows at the micro scale. The first is a new test case for benchmarking high-order, or extended, hydrodynamic models for these flows.
