ON ALLOWANCE FOR ENERGY ACCOMMODATION IN CALCULATING THE HEAT FLUX FROM A SPHERICAL PARTICLE AT ARBITRARY KNUDSEN NUMBERS
S. A. Savkov UDC 533.72 The present paper considers the problem on the calculation of the heat flux from a uniformly heated spherical particle at arbitrary values of the Knudsen number with allowance for the energy accommodation effect. The results of numerical calculations of the BGK model of the collision integral are presented. Orel State University, Orel, Russia.
