Abstract

A physicomathematical model of transport processes of molecules in a molecular-viscous regime is described which is consistent with the knowledge of the random motion of molecules in a molecular regime and of a laminar flow in a viscous regime. The Monte Carlo method is applied for the statistical three-dimensional simulation of a steady-state rarefied gas flow via vacuum system elements of arbitrary geometry in a molecular-viscous regime. The results of computational experiments on the determination of the conduction of long and short cylindrical pipelines are reported.
