Summary
In this paper Shen's method is used for solving the problem of heat transfer in plane Couette flow of a rarefied gas. An approximate distribution function is assumed and the appropriate transfer equations, which exhibit the proper collision effect between the molecules, are used to determine the temperature jumps at the plates.
