MOVIES and RESULTS COMPARISON

• High-order schemes for NS: Viscous shock tube problem
• DSMC vs UGKS for sound wave propagation (Recommended by G.A. Bird)
• DSMC vs UGKS for shock structure calculation (Computed by G.A. Bird and P.B. Yu)
• UGKS: M=2.5 argon shock hitting a plate at Kn=0.004 (Recommended by G.A. Bird ), pressure field ... Temperature field
• UGKS: M=2 argon shock hitting a plate at Kn=0.04 (Recommended by G.A. Bird )
• Sone tube (velocity); UGKS needs a few minutes (<=5) to get steday state solution (Recommended by G.A. Bird). Sone tube (heat flux).
• DSMC vs UGKS: Temperature distributions for 2D cavity flow at Kn=10; UGKS has CORRECT Prandtl Number !
• Crookes radiometer simulated by UGKS with moving mesh.
