Abstract
Analytical expressions for the phenomenological coefficients for thermal transpiration and the mechanocaloric effect in a cylindrical tube, relating to flow of a rarefied gas, are obtained by considering the BGK model. Neumann iteration and variational techniques are used in the near free molecular regime and the method of elementary solutions is used in the near continuum regime. The previously reported results of Ferziger and Loyalka on Poiseuille and thermal creep flows are extended and augmented.Keywords
