In normal heat transfer and fluid flow calculations, the fluid phases are treated as being continuous with properties such as viscosity and thermal conductivity being assumed to be only a function of local pressure, composition and temperature in the flow domain. However, as the size of the flow domain (the channel) becomes smaller and smaller, the continuum treatment breaks down since, in reality, the fluid consists of molecules and, when the flow domain size is no longer enormously greater… CONTINUE READING
