The studies about microcosmic flow behavior on hydrophobic surfaces are important for exploring the drag reduction mechanism in detail. To elucidate the slip behavior of nanoscale Poiseuille flow with different wettability boundary, we have investigated parametrically the effects of wall-fluid interaction and driving force on the slippage, using the nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulation method. The results obtained show that the average velocity and slip length firstly increase and then decrease with the increase of wall fluid interaction, which are quite strange to the common notion. And an underlying molecular-kinetic mechanism about this phenomenon is implied. Meanwhile the results of various driving forces also reveal that driving force affects density distributions slightly, but velocity distributions and slip lengths significantly in the hydrophobic nanochannel.
