An exact analytical solution to the extended Navier-Stokes equations using the Lambert W function

Microchannel gas flows are of importance in a wide range of microelectro mechanical devices. In these flows, the mean free path of the gas can be comparable to the characteristic length of the microchannel, leading to strong diffusion-enhanced transport of momentum. Numerical solutions to the extend...
