lows the diffuse wall model described generated at the beginning of each<br />

above. If a particle leaves the simulation<br />

area during the movement step, ary conditions. [Bir94]<br />

time step on the basis of the bound-<br />

it is eliminated from the simulation. The macroscopic variables such<br />

At the open edges, new particles are as pressure, temperature and flow<br />

velocity are then derived from the<br />

particle distribution with the respective<br />

particle masses, the momentum<br />

and the corresponding energy.<br />

Sazhin already used this method to<br />

investigate a pressure-driven flow,<br />

starting from a high-pressure reservoir<br />

with pressure p 1<br />

and temperature<br />

T 1<br />

through a channel with a triangular<br />

structure on the channel walls<br />

into a perfect vacuum (p 2<br />

= 0) [Saz20].<br />

An exemplary simulation domain<br />

is shown in Fig. 6. The channel<br />

width is considered to be much larger<br />

than the channel height, so that a<br />

2D flow is considered. The dash-dot<br />

line indicates a symmetry plane so<br />

that both edges have the same surface<br />

structure. Fig. 7 shows the mass<br />

flow through the channel with surface<br />

structures in relation to the mass<br />

flow that occurs with smooth walls at<br />

the same gap height as a function of<br />

the gap inlet pressure p 1<br />

for different<br />

profile angles α = β.<br />
