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