Abstract
An investigation is made of the accuracies of the two recently derived formulas for the translational thermal conductivity of multicomponent gas mixtures. It is found that neither formula is sufficiently accurate in all cases, but that a slight modification of the Muckenfuss-Curtiss formula makes it as accurate as current experimental measurements. The modification consists of the replacement of first approximations to binary diffusion coefficients by more accurate values.Keywords
