T2 - Frontiers in Heat and Mass Transfer PY - 2020 VL - 15 IS - 1 SN - 2151-8629 AB - The mass flow rate through a micro/nano channel is calculated by a multiscale analysis when the thickness of the adsorbed layer on the channel wall is comparable to the channel height and the interfacial slippage on the adsorbed layer-wall surface interface occurs or not. The calculation is compared with that from conventional continuum flow theory. It is found that when the ratio KW - Flow; Mass transfer; Micro/nano channel; Multiscale; Slippage DO - 10.5098/hmt.15.11
