Abstract
An isothermal steady rarefied gas flow in a long channel (tube) of elliptical or rectangular cross-section under the action of a given pressure gradient (Poiseuille flow) is studied on the basis of the Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook model. The solution is obtained using a conservative higher-order method. The velocity field in a channel cross-section is investigated as a function of the rarefaction degree and the cross-section geometry parameters. The main calculated function is the gas flow rate through the tube. The solutions obtained are compared with the available results.
