A generalized lattice Boltzmann model for flow through tight porous media with Klinkenberg's effect

Li Chen, Wenzhen Fang, Qinjun Kang +3

Gas slippage occurs when the mean free path of the gas molecules is in the order of the characteristic pore size of a porous medium. This phenomenon leads to the Klinkenberg's effe…
