The slip boundary conditions for the compressible Navier–Stokes equations are derived systematically from the Boltzmann equation on the basis of the Chapman–Enskog solution of the Boltzmann equation and the analysis of the Knudsen layer adjacent to the boundary. The resulting formulas of the slip boundary conditions are summarized with explicit values of the slip coefficients for hard-sphere molecules as well as the Bhatnagar–Gross–Krook model. These formulas, which can be applied to specific problems immediately, help to prevent the use of often used slip boundary conditions that are either incorrect or without theoretical basis.
