CALCULATIONS OF THE COEFFICIENT OF VISCOSITY AND THE COEFFICIENTS OF DIFFUSION FOR DISSOCIATING HYDROGEN
The kinetic theory of dilute monatomic gases and mixtures was used to calculate some transport properties of dissociated hydrogen. The H/sub 2/-H/sub 2/ and H-H/sub 2/ interactions were assumed to obey the modified Buckingham (exp- 6) potential and the Lennard-Jones (12-6) potential, respectively. The two H-H interaction potentials (/sup 1/ SIGMA /sub g/ and /sup 3/ SIGMA /sub u/) were treated by the method of Hirschfelder and Eliason to obtain a weighted average rigid-sphere collision diameter. The coefficient of viscosity, the coefficient of diffusion in a binary mixture of the H-H/sub 2/ system, and the coefficients of self-diffusion for H atoms and H/sub 2/ molecules were computed for temperatures from 1500 to 5000 deg K and pressures of 0.1, 0.5, 1, 2, 10, 50, and 100 atmospheres.
