✦ Synopsis
This paper presents an internal energy exchange scheme for the relaxation time simulation method (RTSM) which solves the BGK equation for the perfect gas flow at near-continuum region discrete rotational energies are introduced to model the relaxation of internal energy modes. This development improved the agreements between RTSM and DSMC with little additional computational cost. The result shows a possibility of an improved hybrid RTSM/DSMC code for the continuum/rarefied gas flow.
