Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Drag on a Body in Nearly-Free Molecular Flow
A third method, as yet not fully analyzed, has been advanced by Enoch It is applicable to high speed flows for which the distribution functions, which are highly peaked about some average velocity, may be approximated by o - functions. The full collision integral is then replaced by a simpler model which, however, retains the three conservation laws. The fore going analysis has been successfully applied to high speed plane Couette flow, the distribution function and its first three moments having been obtained analytically.
