The supersonic flow of nitrogen into a nanochannel is investigated using a three dimensional unstructured Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (U3DSMC) method. The U3DSMC code is validated by comparisons with previous 2D DSMC simulations of flows in micron-scale channels. Rectangular nanochannels with heights between 100 nm to 1000 nm, and aspect ratios L/H of 1, 10, 100 are used in the U3DSMC investigation. The Mach 5.9 freestream has a pressure of 0. 1atm and Knudsen numbers of 0.481, 0.962 and 4.81. The nanochannel walls are assumed to be diffusively reflecting at the freestream temperature. The simulations show the development of a disturbance region upstream from the inlet that depends on the Knudsen number. For the L/H = 10 and L/H = 100 nanochannels considered the velocity decreases from its freestream value velocity decreases from its freestream value and becomes subsonic inside the nanochannel. The temperature shows an enhancement region near the inlet while the density shows an enhancement region inside the nanochannel.

Based on linear potential theory, the general three-dimensional problem of steady supersonic flow inside quasi-cylindrical ducts is formulated as an initial-boundary-value problem for the wave equation, whose general solution arises as an infinite double series of the Fourier–Bessel type. For a broad class of solutions including the general axisymmetric case, it is shown that the presence of a discontinuity in wall slope leads to a periodic singularity pattern associated with non-uniform convergence of the corresponding series solutions, which thus are unsuitable for direct numerical computation. This practical difficulty is overcome by extending a classical analytical method, viz. Kummer's series transformation. A variety of elementary flow fields is presented, whose complex cellular structure can be qualitatively explained by asymptotic laws governing the propagation of small perturbations on characteristic surfaces.
