Numerically ’’exact’’ results for the thermal creep and viscous slip problems for the BGK model and Maxwellian diffuse specular reflection at the wall are obtained by using equations derived earlier by Cercignani, Loyalka, and Cipolla. Results obtained by the use of both the half range and the ’’full-range’’ expansions are found to be in complete agreement and provide standards of comparison for various approximate methods.
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.
