Abstract

An analytical discrete-ordinates method is used to solve the temperature-jump problem as defined by a synthetic-kernel model of the linearized Boltzmann equation. In particular, the temperature and density perturbations and the temperature-jump coefficient defined by the CES model equation are obtained (essentially) analytically in terms of a modern version of the discrete-ordinates method. The developed algorithms are implemented for general values of the accommodation coefficient to yield numerical results that compare well with solutions derived from more computationally intensive techniques.
