Rayleigh's problem of an infinite flat plate set into uniform motion impulsively in its own plane is studied by using the BKW model, the linearized Boltzmann equation and the full Boltzmann equation, respectively. The purpose is to study the gas motion under the diffuse reflection boundary condition. For a small impulsive velocity (small Mach number) and short time, the flow behaves like a free molecule flow. Our analysis is based on certain pointwise estimates for the solution of the problem and flow velocity.
Keywords: Boltzmann equation, initial layer., Rayleigh problem.
