At the microscale level; it is impossible to obtain a completely smooth wall surface; and the effect of surface roughness may be a main factor responsible for some different characteristics between fluid flow in the microchannels and that in conventional size channels. In the present work; the lattice Boltzmann method is applied to investigate the gaseous flow in a microchannel with surface roughness which is modeled by an array of rectangular modules. The effects of relative surface roughness; roughness distribution; and rarefaction on gaseous flow are studied; but the compressibility effect is neglected since the Mach number is less than 0.2. It was shown that the surface roughness had an important influence on friction factor and mass flow rate. In particular; this effect becomes more significant with the decrease of the Knudsen number. This is because the rarefaction reduces the interaction between the gas molecules and the channel walls; which results in reduction of the surface roughness effect. © 2008 American Institute of Physics;
