On the Dynamical Theory of Gases

摘要: The theory of transport processes in gases—such as diffusion, heat conduction, and viscosity—is developed on the basis assumption that molecules behave like point-centres force. method investigation consists calculating mean values various functions velocity all a given kind within an element volume, variations these due, first, to encounters with others same or different kind; second, action external forces such gravity; third, passage through boundary volume.
