Abstract: In this paper, we undertake an analytical study of stresses (augmented and Onsager–Burnett) and entropy generation for the plane Poiseuille flow problem, and their variation with Knudsen number. The gas flow is assumed to ...

Abstract: Rarefied gas flows are highly nonequilibrium flows whose flow physics cannot be discerned accurately within the framework of the Navier–Stokes equations. The Burnett equations and the Grad moment equations, which form a ...
