We propose a thermal lattice Boltzmann model to study gaseous flow in microcavities. The model relies on the use of a finite difference scheme to solve the set of evolution equations. By adopting diffuse reflection boundary conditions to deal with flows in the slip regime, we study the micro-Couette flow in order to select the best numerical scheme in terms of accuracy. The scheme based on flux limiters is then used to simulate a micro-lid-driven cavity flow by using an efficient and parallel implementation. The numerical results are in very good agreement with the available results recovered with different methods.

In this paper, we demonstrate a set of fundamental conditions required for the formulation of a thermohydrodynamic lattice Boltzmann model at an arbitrary Prandtl number. A specific collision operator form is then proposed that is in compliance with these conditions. It admits two independent relaxation times, one for viscosity and another for thermal conductivity. But more importantly, the resulting thermohydrodynamic equations based on such a collision operator form is theoretically shown to remove the well-known non-Galilean invariant artifact at nonunity Prandtl numbers in previous thermal lattice Boltzmann models with multiple relaxation times.
