Radiometer effect on an infinitely thin circular disk
The radiometer effect is a self-thermophoretic phenomenon in which a thin body with a temperature difference between its two sides experiences a force in a rarefied gas. We numerically investigate this effect for an infinitely thin circular disk freely translating at its terminal velocity in an otherwise quiescent gas....
