Abstract:
In this paper, based on the method of gas kinetic theory, the formulas for the drag force of the spherical particle moving in the near-wall region are obtained in the free molecular regime respectively. The results show that there is no near-wall effect when the gas-wall reflection is specular. When the particle moves parallel to the planar wall with diffuse scatterings, the force on the particle in the direction parallel to the planar wall is the drag force and in the direction perpendicular to the planar wall is the near-wall force. At higher wall temperatures, the particle is repelled by the wall effect, while at lower wall temperatures, the particle can move towards close to the wall. When the particle moves perpendicular to the wall, the force on the near-wall particle is the resultant force of the drag force and the near-wall force. © 2025 Science Press. All rights reserved.
