Abstract
⺠An overview of rarefied flows encountered in pharmaceutical freeze-drying is presented. ⺠Thermal creep, conduction, pressure-driven flow, expansion with icing are discussed. ⺠DSMC of flow with icing is presented and results compare well with measurements. ⺠We analyze the influence of design parameters on performance of freeze-dryers.
