🌫️ Rarefied Gas Between Hot and Cold Plates (2D): Direct Simulation Monte Carlo with Knudsen-Number Sweep

2D companion of the rarefied gas simulation: direct simulation Monte Carlo of gas disks between a hot and a cold plate, with temperature jump, heat flux and a Knudsen-number sweep.

⚙ Under the hood

2D companion of the rarefied-gas DSMC simulation: thousands of gas disks between a hot and a cold plate collide by the NTC method, showing the temperature profile, the temperature jump at the walls and the heat flux falling from the free-molecular limit as the Knudsen number drops.
