Recently, the kinetic theory based lattice Boltzmann (LB) models have been developed to model non-equilibrium gas flows. Depending on the order of quadratures, a hierarchy of LB models can be constructed which we have previously shown to be able to capture rarefaction effects in the standing shear wave problems. Here, we further examine the capability of high-order LB models in modeling non-equilibrium flows considering gas/surface interactions and their effect on the bulk flow. The Maxwellian gas/surface interaction model, which has been commonly used in other kinetic methods including direct simulation of Monte Carlo method, is used in the LB simulations. In general, the LB models with high-order Gauss-Hermite quadratures can capture flow characteristics in the Knudsen layer and higher-order quadratures give more accurate prediction. However, for the Gauss-Hermite quadratures, the present simulation results show that the LB models with the quadratures obtained from the even-order Hermite polynomials perform significantly better than those from the odd-order polynomials. This may be attributed to the zero-velocity component in the odd-order discrete set, which does not participate wall/gas collisions, and thus underestimate wall effect.
