Abstract

Evaporation of a liquid into a vacuum occupying a half space is investigated on the basis of the one-dimensional BGK model linearized about a drifting Maxwellian distribution. TheF N method is used to deduce accurate numerical results for the perturbations in the density and temperature.

Zusammenfassung

Auf der Basis eines eindimensionalen BGK-Modells, das über eine driftende Maxwell-Verteilung linearisiert ist, wird die Verdampfung einer Flüssigkeit in ein einen Halbraum ausfüllendes Vakuum untersucht. DieF N-Methode wird verwendet zur Ableitung von genauen numerischen Ergebnissen für die Störungen in Dichte und Temperatur.
