Wall jumps in temperature, partial pressures and populations of multicomponent mixtures of nonequilibrium polyatomic gases (Q1317834)

The Maxwell-Loyalka method is used to derive formulae for the jumps in the macroparameters of a multicomponent nonequilibrium gas mixture. It is assumed that within the kinetic (Knudsen) wall layer one group of internal states of the molecules is close to equilibrium at the translational temperature, while another group and homogeneous chemical reactions are excited fairly slowly, so that they may be considered to be frozen and the corresponding inelastic collision integrals in the kinetic equations can be neglected. However, at the wall different groups of internal states of the molecules may be excited and chemical reactions may take place.
