Velocity vectors of micro-gaseous flow in tree-like model under different surface diffusivity values: (a) Ds = 10–5 m2/s, (b) Ds = 10–6 m2/s, and (c) Ds = 10–8 m2/s, and (d) flows in the continuum regime with no-slip boundary. Other parameters are ∇ p = 0.1 MPa/m, pout = 10 MPa, qsat = 4000 mol/m3, b = 0.125 MPa–1, height = 75 nm, and length = 75 nm.
