Rarefied Gas Dynamics: Kinetic Modeling and Multi-Scale Simulation

by Lei Wu

Book Overview

This book highlights a comprehensive description of the numerical methods in rarefied gas dynamics, which has strong applications ranging from space vehicle re-entry, micro-electromechanical systems, to shale gas extraction.

The book consists of five major parts:

The fast spectral method to solve the Boltzmann collision operator for dilute monatomic gas and the Enskog collision operator for dense granular gas; The general synthetic...
