Abstract
Lees’ method, combined with a generalized Grad’s moment procedure, is used to calculate the heat and mass transport to and from a droplet in a polyatomic gas. A near‐equilibrium and quasisteady situation is assumed. The results are represented by the transport coefficients of a symmetric Onsager matrix. The coefficients depend on the collision numbers of the internal degrees of freedom. Simple results are obtained by performing approximations analogous to the Mason and Monchick analysis for the case of the heat conductivity.
