Why should LGCA work? We have noticed in nature that the behavior of a fluid depends very little on the nature of the individual particles in that fluid. For example, the flow of sand is very similar to the flow of water or the flow of a pile of ball bearings. We have therefore taken advantage of this fact to invent a type of imaginary particle that is especially simple for us to simulate. This particle is a perfect ball bearing that can move at a single speed in one of six directions. The flow of these particles on a large enough scale is very similar to the flow of natural fluids.

ODU Research: Gas Flow in MEMS Luo (Math Dept, ODU) Hydrodynamics 23 / 33
Gas Flow in MEMS: What s the problem? The scales in this problem: Device size: 0 6 m = µm The mean-free-path of air: 70 0 9 m = 70nm The effective air molecular diameter: σ 3 0 0 m = 0.nm Typical hydrodynamic time scale: 0 3 s 0 9 s To consider molecule-surface interaction, one must use Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations. Typical time step size for MD: τ σ m/ɛ 0 2 s = ps Luo (Math Dept, ODU) Hydrodynamics 2 / 33
Gas Flow in MEMS: A Possible Solution Not to directly couple MD and CFD! Use MD to compute the mean-field potential near the wall; Use kinetic schemes to include the mean-field potential obtained from the MD; The goal is to drastically reduce computational time.

ODU Research: Hypersonic Rarefied Gas Flow Luo (Math Dept, ODU) Hydrodynamics 26 / 33
Hypersonic Rarefied Gas Flow The hypersonic rarefied gas flows are strongly nonequilibrium: Large Ma: strong and complex shock-shock and shock-boundary layer interactions; Large Kn: Navier-Stokes equations no longer valid; Established method for nonequilibrium flows: Direct Monte Carlo simulations (DSMC), a stochastic method; Deterministic solution methods of the Boltzmann equation. Our strategy: kinetic methods Extending the Navier-Stokes equations based on the Boltzmann equation. Luo (Math Dept, ODU) Hydrodynamics 27 / 33
Hypersonic Rarefied Gas Flow: Shock at Ma = 8.0 The gas-kinetic scheme based on the Boltzmann equation can accurately and efficiently predict shock thickness (about a few mean-free paths), the stress and heat flux across a shock. Luo (Math Dept, ODU) Hydrodynamics 28 / 33
