Abstract
Relaxation times for seventeen gases have been measured using a steady flow method, the velocity field being found numerically by Southwell's Relaxation Method. Where a comparison is possible the results are found to be in good agreement with sound dispersion data. The present state of knowledge about relaxation effects is discussed and a few instances of their possible appearance are cited.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
