A new class of schemes of the DSMC type for computing near‐continuum flows has been recently suggested: the time‐relaxed Monte Carlo (TRMC) methods. An important step preceding the wide use of these schemes is their validation by classical homogeneous and one‐dimensional problems of gas dynamics. For this purpose, a plane Couette flow is considered in the present paper. A comparison of TRMC results with the data obtained by time‐proved schemes of the DSMC method (here we used the Majorant Frequency Scheme) in a wide range of Knudsen numbers and for different values of wall velocity is presented.
