Abstract

A polynomial expansion procedure and the ADO (analytical discrete-ordinates) method are used to compute the viscous-slip coefficient, the thermal-slip coefficient, and the temperature-jump coefficient from the linearized Boltzmann equation (LBE) for rigid-sphere interactions and the Cercignani–Lampis (CL) boundary condition. These same quantities are also computed from five kinetic models, with the CL condition, and compared to the LBE result. Equivalent results for the LBE and the kinetic models, all based on the usual Maxwell boundary condition, are also reported.
