Abstract
On the basis of the linearized gas-kinetic model equations solution (the BGK and the S model), a force affecting a unilaterally illuminated spherical particle in a rarefied gas is calculated. Numerical calculations of the photophoretic force and the particle motion velocity are carried out for the whole range of Knudsen numbers taking into account the particle’s thermophysical, optical, and accommodation properties. The results obtained are compared to the known theoretical and experimental data.
