Slow uniform flow of a rarefied gas past an infinitely thin circular disk
Takuma Tomita, Satoshi Taguchi, Tetsuro Tsuji
The classical problem of steady rarefied gas flow past an infinitely thin circular disk is revisited, with particular emphasis on the gas behavior near the disk edge. The uniform f…
