Abstract
Transport properties of dissociating nitrogen and dissociating oxygen have been calculated from 1000° to 10 000°K with the assumption of no ionization or electronic excitation, using rigorous kinetic‐theory formulas. The transport coefficients at each temperature are tabulated as a function of composition. The transport properties of the mixtures exhibit no special unusual features (unlike hydrogen). Various approximate formulas for the calculation of transport properties of mixtures have been checked against the results of the rigorous calculations, and give agreement to about 5%. A few checks of the calculations against experimental diffusion coefficients, viscosities, and thermal conductivities are possible, and the agreement seems reasonable.
