In the present paper, we provide an analytical expression for the first- and second-order velocity slip coefficients by means of a variational technique that applies to the integrodifferential form of the Boltzmann equation based on the true linearized collision operator and the Cercignani–Lampis scattering kernel of the gas–surface interaction. The polynomial form of the Knudsen number obtained for the Poiseuille mass flow rate and the values of the velocity slip coefficients are analysed in the frame of potential applications of the lattice Boltzmann methods in simulations of microscale flows.
