Abstract:The key to Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) is decoupling of particle motion and particle collisions. Particles within each cell are randomly chosen as collision partners, and the collision is then accepted or rejected by comparing collision criteria to a random number. In the Smoothed Accept/Reject (SAR) algorithm, the accept/reject criteria is altered: rather than a binary function of rejection or acceptance, collisions can be partially accepted with a linear weighting between zero and one. The partial a… Show more
