Effect of gas slip on the pressure drop in a system of parallel cylinders at small reynolds numbers

Abstract

The dependence of pressure drop across a model filter on the Knudsen number has been studied experimentally and theoretically for a simplest fiber filter model-a system of parallel cylinders arranged perpendicular to the flow. It has been shown that the reciprocal value of the drag on the fibers increased linearly with the Knudsen number. © 1971.
