The effect is considered of gas motion on the kinetics of reactions whose energy threshold is overcome as the result of vibrational excitation of the reactant molecules. The conditions are determined for which such an effect may be realized. An expression is obtained for the rate of thermal dissociation of diatomic molecules considered as haromonic oscillators representing a small impurity in a monoatomic inert gas; the expression depends explicitly and nonlinearly on the divergence of the flow velocity.
