Abstract:

Direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method is a statistical approach widely employed for simulating rarefied micro-/nanoflows. DSMC is considered as a particle method in which each particle represents a large bulk of real gas molecules. It is proved that DSMC solution is as accurate as the solution of Boltzmann equation over the whole range of the Knudsen number.
