We present a numerical method for computing unsteady rareed gas micro ows, in domains with moving boundaries, in view of applications to complex computations of moving structures in micro or vacuum systems. The ow is described by the Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) model of the Boltzman equation. A standard approach to simulate incompressible viscous ows with moving boundaries is the immersed boundary method. In this work, we propose an extension of this approach to a deterministic simulation of rareed ows. The immersed boundary approach consists in keeping the same mesh all along the calculation: every cell of the mesh remains xed for all time steps while the domain occupied by the gas changes. This strategy avoids to use moving meshes and remeshing approaches, and should be easily applied to problems with complex geometries. The method has been tested with both specular and diuse boundary conditions and has been validated on several 1D problems (moving piston, actuator, etc.). Up to our knowledge, this is the rst time that a deterministic simulation method for rareed ows with moving obstacles based on the immersed boundary method is presented.
