RAREFIED GAS FLOW THROUGH A LONG ELLIPTICAL TUBE.
The applet provides the mass flow rate of a rarefied gas through a long elliptical tube. The details can be found in the paper by I. Graur and F. Sharipov Eur. J. Mech. B / Fluids(2008). If you have questions or suggestions to improve the program, please write me: sharipov@fisica.ufpr.br
