Numerical Stability with Help from Entropy: Solving a Set of 13 Moment Equations for Shock Tube Problem

TL;DR: In this paper, a 13 moment generalized hydrodynamics system of rarefied gases is simulated and the physical entropy evolution of the Boltzmann equation is used to reveal the nonequilibrium entropy profile across a shock wave.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermodynamic analysis of gas flow and heat transfer in microchannels

TL;DR: In this paper, the second-law analysis of microscale gas flow and heat transfer should include both the classical bulk entropy generation and the interfacial one which was usually missing in the previous studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular diameters of rarefied gases

TL;DR: In this paper , a method to describe gas flows in straight channels with arbitrary cross sections for the whole Knudsen range by using a superposition model based on molecular diameters is presented.

Computational framework for the regularized 20-moment equations for non-equilibrium gas flows

TL;DR: In this article, a framework for solving the regularized 20-moment equations consisting of a set of transport-like governing equations, the required constitutive closure, re-casting of the equations in second-order partial derivative form and derivation of additional wall boundary conditions is presented.
