When the flow is sufficiently rarefied, a temperature gradient, for example, between two walls separated by a few mean free paths, induces a gas flow---an observation attributed to the thermo-stress convection effects at microscale.

When the molecules of a gaseous system are far apart, say in microscale gas flows where the surface to volume ratio is high and hence the surface forces dominant, the molecule-surface interactions lead to the formation of a local thermodynamically non-equilibrium region extending few mean free paths from the surface.
