Transport coefficients of dissociating and slightly ionizing air.
ResearchPublished 1957
Estimates of the transport coefficients of a dissociating diatomic gas and an ionizing monatomic gas for degrees of ionization up to about 10 per cent. The results are generalized for a mixture of diatomic gases of similar molecular weights, such as air. Numerical values of the viscosity, thermal conductivity, and Prandtl number for air are shown graphically.
