Klappentext zu „Macroscopic Transport Equations for Rarefied Gas Flows “
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 description.
This book discusses classical and modern methods to derive macroscopic transport equations for rarefied gases from the Boltzmann equation, for small and moderate Knudsen numbers, i.e. at and above the Navier-Stokes-Fourier level. The main methods discussed are the classical Chapman-Enskog and Grad approaches, as well as the new order of magnitude method, which avoids the short-comings of the classical methods, but retains their benefits. The relations between the various methods are carefully examined, and the resulting equations are compared and tested for a variety of standard problems.
The book develops the topic starting from the basic description of an ideal gas, over the derivation of the Boltzmann equation, towards the various methods for deriving macroscopic transport equations, and the test problems which include stability of the equations, shock waves, and Couette flow.
The well known transport laws of macroscopic physics, i.e. the 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. Thus, the proper simulation of flow in microdevices requires a more detailed description. This introductory textbook presents the development of continuum models for microscale effects in a concise form - mathematically sound, but as simple as possible. Based on the Boltzmann equation main approaches to develop microscale continuum models are presented such as the Chapman-Enskog method, the Grad's moment method, as well as combinations of the both. These methods can be used to study a wide number of problems, including applications to rarefied gas flow, the reentry problem of space craft, electron transport in solids, heat transfer in crystals at low temperatures, and radiative transfer. This book aims particularly to open make this applied mathematics subject accessible for engineers, who seek not absolute mathematical precision but workable and useful models, which are derived here in a transparent manner.
