Macroscopic Transport Equations for Rarefied Gas Flows
Publication year: 2005
: 978-3-540-32386-0
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.as well as the new order of magnitude method, which avoids the short-comings of the classical methods, but retains their benefits.
