The present review is dedicated to the velocity slip and temperature jump coefficients applied to modeling of gas flows. Such coefficients are used when a moderate gas rarefaction must be taken into account. In this case, calculations of gas flows can be performed on the basis of continuum mechanics equations applying the velocity slip and temperature jump boundary conditions. Thus, the velocity slip and temperature jump coefficients have the same importance in gas dynamics as the transport coefficients such as viscosity, thermal conductivity, and diffusion coefficients. A critical analysis of theoretical and experimental data on the slip and jump coefficients available in the open literature is presented in an accessible form so that it can be easily understandable for nonspecialists in rarefied gas dynamics. The most reliable results are selected and tabulated. The results cover a single gas with the complete and noncomplete accommodation on a solid surface, gaseous mixtures, and polyatomic gases. Many examples of applications of the slip and jump boundary conditions are given. The review will be useful as a reference for mathematicians, physicists, and engineers dealing with flows of moderately rarefied gases.
