XVIII. On certain dimensional properties of matter in the gaseous state. - Part I. Experimental researches on thermal transpiration of gases through porous plates and on the laws of transpiration and impulsion, including an experimental proof that gas is not a continuous plenum. - Part II. On an extension of the dynamical theory of gas, which includes the stresses, tangential and normal, caused by a varying condition of gas, and affords an explanation of the phenomena of transpiration and impulsion

Abstract
The motion of gases through minute channels, such as capillary tubes, porous plugs, and apertures in thin plates, has been the subject of much attention during the last fifty years. The experimenta...Keywords
