Macroscopic Transport Equations for Rarefied Gas Flows Approximation Methods in Kinetic Theory /

The well known transport laws of Navier-Stokes and Fourier fail for the simulation of processes on lengthscales in the order of the mean free path of a particle that is when the Knudsen number is not small enough. Thus, the proper simulation of flows in rarefied gases requires a more detailed descri...
