dc.description.abstract | The motion of small suspended particles in a gas or gas mixture containing gradients of temperature, pressure, or composition is derived as a special case of the Chapman‐Enskog kinetic theory of gases, by formally treating the suspended particles as large molecules. Gas molecules colliding with the suspended particles are considered to rebound elastically, but a fraction f rebound in random directions and the remainder rebound specularly. The results check, in an indirect way, the calculations of Waldmann by a momentum transfer method on a slightly different model, in which the randomly rebounding molecules also have a random distribution of speeds. Significantly different results are predicted by the two models only in the presence of a temperature gradient (thermal diffusion), which has interesting implications concerning thermal diffusion in polyatomic gases. | en_US |
