Large Deviations in Rarefied Quantum Gases
The probability of observing a large deviation (LD) in the number of particles in a region L in a dilute quantum gas contained in a much larger region V is shown to decay as exp[− |L| DF], where |L| is the volume of L and DF is the change in the appropriate free energy density, the same as in classical systems. However, in contrast with the classical case, where this formula holds at all temper...
متن کاملNumerical simulation of moving rigid bodies in rarefied gases
In this paper we present a numerical scheme to simulate a moving rigid body with arbitrary shape suspended in a rarefied gas. The rarefied gas is simulated by solving the Boltzmann equation using a DSMC particle method. The motion of the rigid body is governed by the Newton-Euler equations, where the force and the torque on the rigid body is computed from the momentum transfer of the gas molecu...
متن کاملInternal Energy Excitation and Chemical Reaction Models for Rarefied Gases
Models for internal energy exchange and for chemical reactions developed for DSMC simulations are reviewed. 1.0 INTRODUCTION DSMC [1, 2] is a standard tool for the simulation of rarefied gas flows. It has, therefore found widespread application in the aerospace community for the simulation of high altitude vehicle aerodynamics. New developments and new goals in the field pose new challenges for...
متن کاملNumerical Simulations of Rarefied Gases in Curved Channels: Thermal Creep, Circulating Flow, and Pumping Effect
We present numerical simulations of a new system of micro-pump based on the thermal creep effect described by the kinetic theory of gases. This device is made of a simple smooth and curved channel along which is applied a periodic temperature field. Using the Boltzmann-BGK model as the governing equation for the gas flow, we develop a new numerical method based on a deterministic finite volume ...
متن کاملThe study of sound wave propagation in rarefied gases using unified gas-kinetic scheme
Sound wave propagation in rarefied monatomic gases is simulated using a newly developed unified gaskinetic scheme (UGKS). The numerical calculations are carried out for a wide range of wave oscillating frequencies. The corresponding rarefaction parameter is defined as the ratio of sound wave frequency to the intermolecular particle collision frequency. The simulation covers the flow regime from...
