Pre RGD32: Artem Yakunchikov, Heat transfer in a rarefied gas between profiled surfaces moving relative to each other

The heat transfer in a rarefied gas between two solid surfaces moving relative to each other was studied. The problem was solved for nitrogen using the eventdriven molecular dynamics (EDMD) method under the following conditions: (1) а wide range of flow regimes (2) high relative velocity of surfaces, comparable to the thermal velocity of gas molecules, (3) significant difference in surface temperatures, (4) rotational degrees of freedom in gas molecules and (5) complex geometry of solid surfaces (nonstationary problem). The reported study was supported by the Russian Science Foundation (project 207110049). Artem Yakunchikov. Heat transfer in a rarefied gas between profiled surfaces moving relative to each other.
