Viscosity and slip velocity in gas flow in microchannels
2005
It was shown that as a result of the interaction of part of the molecules with a wall, the viscosity in the Knudsen layer is lower in comparison with the viscosity in the bulk fluid. The slip condition of Maxwell depends on the normal gradient of the tangential velocity on the wall. The reduction of the viscosity increases the tangential velocity and its normal gradient, and, therefore, increases the slip. The correction factors for the Maxwell expression for one-dimensional plane and tubular isothermal and incompressible flows as a function of the Knudsen number and of the kind of interaction of molecules with the wall were derived.
