Abstract: The influence of a boundary layer in the Couette flow of a rarefied gas is studied by means of the Grad's solution for the Boltzmann equation. The boundary conditions satisfied by the relevant Grad's moments are calculated through the simplest wall model which is characterized by some accommodation coefficients in the surface. Accordingly, temperature and velocity profiles in the gas are calculated.
