Calculation of Transport Properties of Nitrogen, Oxygen and a Binary Mixture of Them at High Temperatures and Low Densities Using Molecular Electronic States

The thermophysical properties of nitrogen and oxygen are important in air at high temperatures, in the chemistry and physics of the upper atmosphere and in a variety of applications. Experimental thermophysical properties of these gases are usually sparse, because of the high temperatures required, and then it is necessary to rely on theory to obtain the transport properties of them. Transport properties such as viscosity η, diffusion D and thermal conductivity λ, can be related to transport collision integrals
