Abstract

The flow in conical supersonic micronozzles and behind them by deposition of pentacene accelerated by helium was studied with the use of direct simulation Monte-Carlo method. The Knudsen number in critical cross-section of nozzles is 0.0043. A directedness of resulting accelerated pentacene flow was studied as a function of cone angle and geometrical Mach number of the nozzle. The intensity of heavy gas flow in the hypersonic region can be elevated by one order using supersonic nozzles.
