Rarefied gas flow over sphere studied within kinetic theory of gases, with solutions for wide range of fluid densities
The current state of those aspects of rarefied gas dynamics research that appear to be most important to research planned over the next decade is evaluated. These aspects encompass assessments of computational rarefied-gas dynamics (CRGD) that will allows their use as surrogates for experiments, the development of hybris-flowfield computational techniques matching continuum computations with particle computations, and the validation of CRGD through the results of experimental studies of Knudsen layers in simple flows. The design of surfaces for the achievement of stable, low-momentum and thermal accommodation coefficients will be a major priority, together with theorization and experimentation on evaporation and condensation effects close to surfaces.
