Transport properties of five-component nitrogen and oxygen ionized mixtures with electronic excitation
Abstract
The aim of this work is to describe the influence of electronic excitation of electrically neutral particles in chemically non-equilibrium five-component N2/N2+/N/N+/e- and O2/O2+/O/O+/e- ionized mixtures without magnetic field. Using the modified Chapman-Enskog method, the transport coefficients are found in the temperature range 500-50000 K for various mixture compositions. The flow conditions, where excitation of electronic degrees of freedom is of importance for the evaluation of transport properties are specified.
