The aim of the current work is to simulate nanonozzle flows using Simplified Bernoulli-Trials collision algorithm in the dsmcfoamstrath solver of OpenFoam. In this test, the inlet Knudsen number, pressure ratio and wall ...

In the current study, direct simulation Monte Carlo DSMC method is applied to obtain entropy, entropy generation, heat flux and the local gradient Knudsen number in the nano thermal cavity. In this geometry, the heat flux ...

Flow regimes through micro/nano nozzles experience the continuum behavior as well as the rarefied condition. The occurrence of broad rarefaction regimes due to unique geometry/flow conditions makes the particle-based simulation of micro/nano nozzles...

In this paper rarefied gas flow through micro/nano nozzles is considered with the aim of reducing the computational costs. The motivation is to obtain the same accuracy with lower "Particle Per Cell" (PPC) in the direct simulations Monte Carlo (DSMC...
