The Monte Carlo and Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Gas-surface Interaction

A testing procedure and a program product for modeling gas-surface scattering process have been developed. Using the developed product the numerical simulation of the thermal transpiration phenomenon at free molecular conditions of the gas flow in channels with the use of different scattering kernels has been carried out. The surface structure influence on energy and momentum exchange in a gas-surface system has been studied by the use of Molecular Dynamics method. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2005.The research described in this publication was made possible by Awards No: 03-53-5117 of INTAS and No: REC-005 (EK-005-X1), Y2-P-05-15 of U.S. Civilian Research & Development Foundation for the Independent States of the Former Soviet Union (CRDF)
