摘要
The exact solution to the hierarchy of nonlinear lattice Boltzmann kinetic equations,for the stationary planar Couette flow for any Knudsen number was presented by S.Ansumali et al.[Phys.Rev.Lett.,98(2007),124502].In this paper,simulation results at a non-vanishing value of the Knudsen number are compared with the closed-form solutions for the higher-order moments.The order of convergence to the exact solution is also studied.The lattice Boltzmann simulations are in excellent agreement with the exact solution.
