The flow through a two-dimensional slit is simulated using non-linear model kinetic equations (BGK, ES-model) in the large Knudsen number range. The discrete velocity method is implemented to determine the flow parameters. Several different (finite and infinite) tank pressure ratios are considered and are compared with the results of DSMC simulations and some experimental data.
