Abstract
Molecular dynamics simulation method was used to study the rarefied gaseous flows in nanochannels. A pressure-driven force was introduced to drive the gas to flow between two parallel walls. The effects of driven force magnitude and channel height were investigated. The results show that a single layer of gaseous molecules is adsorbed on the wall surface. The density of adsorption layer decreases with the increase of channel height, but doesnt vary with driven force. The velocity profile across the channel has the traditional parabolic shape. The average velocity and gas slip velocity on the wall increase linearly with the increase of pressure-driven force. The gas slip velocity decreases linearly with the increase of channel height. The ratio of slip to average velocity decreases linearly with the increase of channel height.
