Abstract

The Cercignani–Lampis gas–surface scattering kernel is extended to include two important cases not covered by the basic model. These are (a) diffuse scattering with partial energy accommodation, and (b) accommodation of vibrational energy of a diatomic molecule with equally spaced energy levels. Both extensions are easily implemented in direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) calculations. The results of some test calculations are presented.
