| dc.description | This paper was presented at the 4th Micro and Nano Flows Conference (MNF2014), which was held at University College, London, UK. The conference was organised by Brunel University and supported by the Italian Union of Thermofluiddynamics, IPEM, the Process Intensification Network, the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, the Heat Transfer Society, HEXAG - the Heat Exchange Action Group, and the Energy Institute, ASME Press, LCN London Centre for Nanotechnology, UCL University College London, UCL Engineering, the International NanoScience Community, www.nanopaprika.eu. | en_US |
| dc.description.abstract | The Regularized 13-Moment Equations state a model for describing rarefied gas flows. The equations are based on a moment approximation of the Boltzmann equation and aim at an accurate prediction up to Knudsen numbers of 0.5. This paper is concerned with the numerical treatment of the PDE system, with special focus on slow flows. Finite elements and finite volumes are applied and the results of both approaches are discussed and the pros and cons are outlined. | en_US |
