We present a Lattice Boltzmann method for the simulation of a wide range of Knudsen regimes. The method is assessed in terms of normalised discharge for flow across parallel plates and three-dimensional flows in porous media. Available analytical solutions are well reproduced, supporting the the method as an appealing candidate to bridge the gap between the hydrodynamic regime and free molecular motion.
