Abstract

The problem of calculation of a correction to the coefficient of isothermal slip that is due to the wall curvature is solved. For this purpose we constructed the exact solution of a nonhomogeneous model kinetic Boltzmann equation with a collision operator in the form of the BGK model with the frequency of collisions proportional to the modulus of the intrinsic velocity of gas molecules. Comparison with the results obtained earlier is given.
