Some solutions (linear in the spatial variables) and generalized Chapman–Enskog functions basic to the linearized Boltzmann equations for a binary mixture of rigid spheres
A Legendre expansion of the (matrix) scattering kernel relevant to the (vectorvalued) linearized Boltzmann equation for a binary mixture of rigid spheres is used to define twelve solutions that are linear in the spatial variables {x, y, z}. The twelve (asymptotic) solutions are expressed in terms of three vector-valued functions A(c), A(c), and B(c). These functions are generalizations of the C...
متن کاملParticular solutions of the linearized Boltzmann equation for a binary mixture of rigid spheres
Particular solutions that correspond to inhomogeneous driving terms in the linearized Boltzmann equation for the case of a binary mixture of rigid spheres are reported. For flow problems (in a plane channel) driven by pressure, temperature, and density gradients, inhomogeneous terms appear in the Boltzmann equation, and it is for these inhomogeneous terms that the particular solutions are devel...
متن کاملThe temperature-jump problem based on the linearized Boltzmann equation for a binary mixture of rigid spheres
An analytical version of the discrete-ordinates method (the ADO method) is used with recently reported analytical forms for the rigid-sphere scattering kernels to establish a concise and particularly accurate solution to the temperature-jump problem for a binary gas mixture described by the linearized Boltzmann equation. The solution yields, in addition to the temperature-jump coefficient for t...
متن کاملHeat transfer between parallel plates: An approach based on the linearized Boltzmann equation for a binary mixture of rigid-sphere gases
An analytical version of the discrete-ordinates method is used to develop a concise and particularly accurate solution of the heat-transfer problem for a binary gas mixture confined between two parallel plates. The formulation of the problem allows general specular-diffuse Maxwell boundary conditions for each of the two types of particles and is based on a form of the linearized Boltzmann equat...
متن کاملChannel Flow of a Binary Mixture of Rigid Spheres Described by the Linearized Boltzmann Equation and Driven by Temperature, Pressure, and Concentration Gradients
An analytical version of the discrete-ordinates method (the ADO method) is used with recently established analytical expressions for the rigid-sphere scattering kernels in a study devoted to the flow of a binary gas mixture in a plane channel. In particular, concise and accurate solutions to basic flow problems in a plane channel driven by temperature, pressure, and concentration gradients and ...
