Another possible origin of temperature and pressure gradients across vanes in the Crookes radiometer

DOI

Description

In conventional studies on the Crookes radiometer, the vane temperature was assumed to be higher at the black side than at the shiny side. In this study, a new idea - the vanes are isothermal but accommodation coefficients are different at the black side αB and the shiny side αS - has been proposed and examined using DSMC. Higher gas temperature and pressure are induced at the black side with αB=1 than at the shiny side with αS<1, acting as a force to push the vanes.
