Study of Flow Characteristics of Gas Mixtures in a Rectangular Knudsen Pump
A Knudsen pump operates under the thermal transpiration effect or the thermal edge effect on the micro-scale. Due to the uneven temperature distribution of the walls in the channel axis direction or the constant temperature of the tips on the walls, directional thermally-induced flow is generated. I...
