Abstract
An analytical version of the discrete-ordinates method is used to solve the classical problems of Poiseuille flow and thermal-creep flow in a plane channel. The kinetic theory for the rarefied-gas flow is based on the S model (a generalization of the BGK model), and in addition to the use of the diffuse–specular reflection model (based on a single accommodation coefficient) for describing particle scattering from the channel walls, the Cercignani–Lampis model defined in terms of normal and tangential accommodation coefficients is implemented. The established solution is tested numerically, and results for the velocity and heat-flow profiles, the particle-flow rate and the heat-flow rate thought to be correct to many significant figures are reported for various values of the channel width.
