The non-equilibrium transport of inhomogeneous and dense gases highly confined by surface is encountered in many engineering applications. For example, in the shale gas production process, methane is extracted from ultra-tight pores under…
In the past few decades, great efforts have been devoted to studying heat transfer on the nanoscale due to its importance in multiple technologies such as thermal control and sensing applications. Heat conduction through the nanoconfined…
Transport coefficients are of crucial importance in theoretical as well as experimental studies. Despite substantial research on classical hard sphere/disk gases in low and high density regimes, a thorough investigation of transport…
Experimental studies of electron mobilities in Neon as a function of the gas density have persistently shown mobilities up to an order of magnitude smaller than expected and predicted. A previously ignored mechanism (gas in--homogeneity…
The gas dynamics under external force field is essentially associated with multiple scale nature due to the large variations of density and local Knudsen number. Single scale fluid dynamic equations, such as the Boltzmann and Navier-Stokes…
Low-temperature (down to $\sim$ 50 mK) thermal conductivity measurements with the heat flow direction along the inter-plane tetragonal $c$-axis, $\kappa_c$, were used to study the superconducting state of heavy fermion CeIrIn$_5$.…
Two kinetic models are proposed for high-temperature rarefied (or non-equilibrium) gas flows with radiation. One of the models uses the Boltzmann collision operator to model the translational motion of gas molecules, which has the ability…
Simulation of transport properties of confined, low-dimensional fluids can be performed efficiently by means of Multi-Particle Collision (MPC) dynamics with suitable thermal-wall boundary conditions. We illustrate the effectiveness of the…
We report on the existence of temperature induced negative differential conductivity (NDC) for electrons in gaseous nitrogen. The important role of superelastic rotational collisional processes in this phenomenon is highlighted. A model…
Shale gas recovery has seen a major boom in recent years due to the increasing global energy demands; but the extraction technologies are very expensive. It is therefore important to develop realistic transport modelling and simulation…
Recent reports of superconductivity in the vicinity of room temperature have been the subject of discussion by the community. Specifically, features in the resistance-temperature (R-T) relations have raised questions. We show that many of…
Half-space problems in the kinetic theory of gases are of great importance in the study of the asymptotic behavior of solutions of boundary value problems for the Boltzmann equation for small Knudsen numbers. In this work a generally…
Gas behavior in systems at microscale has been receiving significant attention from researchers in the last two decades [1-4]. Today, there is an enhanced emphasis on developing new experimental techniques to capture the local temperature…
Interfaces play a crucial role in energy transport at the nanoscale. However, direct experimental observations of interfacial thermal conductance across molecular junctions have remained challenging due to the high spatiotemporal resolution…
Specific conductance and frequency-dependent resistance (impedance) data are widely utilized for understanding the physicochemical characteristics of aqueous and non-aqueous fluids and for evaluating the performance of chemical processes.…
As power electronics shrinks down to sub-micron scale, the thermal transport from a solid surface to environment becomes significant. Under circumstances when the device works in rare gas environment, the scale for thermal transport is…
Understanding heat transport in low-dimensional and nano-architectured materials remains a central challenge in nonequilibrium statistical physics due to persistent deviations from Fourier's law. These deviations are driven by…
The Enskog kinetic theory for moderately dense granular suspensions is considered as a model to determine the Navier-Stokes transport coefficients. The influence of the interstitial gas on solid particles is modeled by a viscous drag force…
Thermal transport in complex solids is governed by local structure, defects, and anisotropy, yet most continuum models still rely on oversimplified, homogenized conductivities. Here, we bridge atomistic and continuum descriptions by…
Radiative heat transfer between parallel objects separated by deep sub-wavelength distances and subject to large thermal gradients (>100 K) could enable breakthrough technologies for electricity generation and thermal transport control.…
