Abstract Simpli®ed expressions for the state-to-state transport coecients are proposed. The main stress is on the diusion of vibrational energy. The state-to-state diusion coecients are compared to the commonly used diusion coecients, and the role of non-equilibrium vibrational distributions in the diusion process and heat transfer is estimated.

1. Introduction Recent advancement of state-to-state kinetic theory can be explained by the growing interest to dierent kinds of non-equilibrium ¯ows. It is well known that in many real gas ¯ows the strongly non-equilibrium conditions arise, so that widely used quasi-stationary distributions over vibrational energies are not valid. Excellent examples are the ¯ows behind shock waves [1±3], expanding ¯ows [4±7], ¯ows in the boundary layer under reentry conditions [8,9]. In the papers cited above the master equations for the vibrational level populations have been solved and noticeable deviations from the Boltzmann vibrational distribu-

tion have been found in some regions of the ¯ow ®eld. Another important aspect of the state-to-state kinetic theory is the evaluation of transport properties under non-equilibrium conditions. The formal transport kinetic theory in the case of strong vibrational and chemical non-equilibrium has been developed in Ref. [10]. In the more recent papers [11±14] the eect of non-equilibrium vibrational distributions on the heat transfer and diusion in dierent ¯ows is estimated. In particular, it has been shown that the vibrational energy transport by diusion makes a signi®cant contribution to the total heat ¯ux behind shock waves and in the boundary layer. The investigation of transport properties in papers [11±14] has been performed using an approximate approach. First, the macroscopic parameters (vibrational distributions, species concentrations, temperature, pressure) are computed either in the Euler approach [11,13] or on the basis

of essentially simpli®ed models for transport coecients [12]. In the paper [14] the state-to-state distributions are derived by the DSMC method. Then the calculated macroscopic parameters are used as input for the transport properties evaluation. The reason for invoking such an approximate scheme is that the practical implementation of the state-to-state transport coecients in the computational ¯uid dynamics (CFD) is extremely dicult, re-calculation of these coecients at the each step of numerical code leads to very high consumption of computational time. The computational cost of the linear transport systems solution is discussed in Section 3. The aim of the present paper is to derive the simpli®ed linear transport systems and thus reduce noticeably the time for the transport coecients calculation. The obtained systems consist of few equations, it makes possible to solve them at the each step of CFD code, and therefore to get more self-consistent results. Another objective is to check the validity of some commonly used models for the diusion coecients.
2. Transport terms in the state-to-state approach The state-to-state transport kinetic theory is developed in Ref. [10] on the basis of the generalized Chapman±Enskog method. An experimentally observed relationship between the characteristic times of main processes [15] sel < srot svibr < sreact h;

(sel , srot , svibr , sreact are respectively the mean times of translational, rotational and vibrational relaxation and chemical reactions, h is the macroscopic time) provides a strong vibrational±chemical coupling. In this case no quasi-stationary vibrational distributions exist, and the zero order distribution
0 function fcij (c, i, j denote chemical species, vibrational and rotational quantum numbers) is obtained under the form of Maxwell±Boltzmann distribution over velocities and rotational energy depending on the non-equilibrium vibrational level populations and chemical species concentrations:

mc is the molecular mass, k is the Boltzmann constant, T is the gas temperature, nci are the nonequilibrium vibrational level populations, cc uc v is the peculiar velocity, v is the macroscopic gas velocity, scij , ecij are the statistic weight and energy of the jth rotational state corresponding to ci the vibrational level i of chemical species c, Zrot is the rotational partition function. The ®rst order distribution functions are given by the expression [10]:

A closed set of macroscopic equations for the macroscopic parameters nci , v, T is obtained in Refs. [10,16] and consists of the conservation equations for the momentum and total energy coupled with the equations of detailed vibrationchemical kinetics for the vibrational level populations nci .

The bracket integrals A; B introduced in Refs. [10,16] are determined by the cross-sections of the most frequent collisions, i.e. the elastic collisions and those leading to the rotational energy exchange (see Appendix A.1 for de®nition). Therefore these bracket integrals dier from the ones de®ned in the classical thermal equilibrium onetemperature approach. In the latter case the bracket integrals depend also on the cross-sections of vibrational energy exchanges. The diusion velocity of the molecules of each chemical and vibrational species has been found in Ref. [10] under the form: Vci

The expressions for the heat ¯ux and diusion velocity contain not only the gradient of the gas temperature but also the gradients of all level populations of dierent molecular species and number densities of atoms with corresponding diusion and thermal diusion coecients. In the general case these coecients are dierent for various vibrational and chemical species. Following the procedure proposed in Ref. [10], the functions Acij , Ddk cij and Bcij are expanded into ®nite series of Sonine and Waldmann± Tr ubenbacher orthogonal polynomials over reduced translational and rotational energy correspondingly: ci ej mc cc X mc c2c

Using the polynomial expansions, the integral equations for functions Acij , Ddk cij , Bcij can be reduced to the systems of linear algebraic equations.

This is the general method for the calculation of state dependent transport coecients based on the rigorous kinetic theory approach [10]. Until this point no additional assumptions have been introduced to simplify this procedure. 3. Simpli®ed expressions for transport coecients Let us remind the main problems which arise during the practical calculation of the state-tostate transport coecients. First, several kinds of bracket integrals for each chemical and vibrational species must be computed. It requires the data on the cross-sections of elastic collisions and TR processes depending on the vibrational states of colliding particles. Another diculty encountered in reaching this goal is the great amount of linear algebraic equations which have to be solved for every value of temperature and each distribution over vibrational energies and chemical species. Let Ntot be the total number of chemical and vibraP mol tional species (Ntot Lc1 Lc Lat , Lmol is the
E.V. Kustova / Chemical Physics 270 (2001) 177±195
number of molecular species, Lc is the total number of vibrational energy levels in molecular species c, PLLmolat is the number of atomic species), Nv c1 Lc denotes the total number of vibrational states in a mixture. In order to deduce the thermal conductivity coecient k0 one must solve a system consisting of 3Nv 2Lat algebraic equations, the system for the shear viscosity coecient calculation contains Ntot equations. The worst case is the computation of diusion coecients: there 2 are Ntot coecients Dcidk in the mixture, for each coecient the system of Ntot algebraic coecients has to be solved. Strictly speaking, the number of independent diusion coecients is Ntot
Ntot 1=2 because Dcidk Ddkci . However, despite this fact the total number of diusion coecients remains tremendous. A simple example: in a mixture (N2 =N) taking into account 46 vibrational levels of nitrogen, one obtains 1128 independent diusion coecients, each of them is found solving the system of 47 algebraic equations. In the same mixture, for the computation of thermal conductivity and shear viscosity coecients the systems of 140 and 47 equations should be considered respectively. It is obvious that such a computational scheme cannot be implemented to any CFD code, re-calculation of all transport coecients at the each step of numerical code will make it too much time consumable. In order to maintain the advantages of the state-to-state transport theory and simplify the procedure of transport coecients calculation some additional assumptions are required. In the present work the following assumptions are introduced: (1) The rotational motion of a molecule is described by the rigid rotator model. It allows to consider the rotational energy independently from the vibrational state
ecij ecj and therefore to put crot;ci crot;c . This fact simpli®es noticeably the thermal conductivity computation. (2) Usual assumptions of Monchick et al. [17] for the calculation of bracket integrals are introduced: ®rst, all complex collisions are neglected, and second, the internal and translational motions are considered as the uncorrelated ones. These assumptions allow one to express all bracket integrals as linear combinations of the elastic colli-
181
sion integrals and the integrals depending on the change of rotational energy Decidk rot at the inelastic collisions. (3) All collision integrals depending on Decidk rot are supposed to be much smaller than the elastic collision integrals. This assumption was discussed in details and proved in Refs. [10,18]: the contribution of the collision integrals depending on Decidk rot to the thermal conductivity coecients is found to be less than 1±2%. (4) The cross-sections of elastic collisions are assumed to be independent of the vibrational states of colliding particles. This assumption is usually accepted in the transport kinetic theory despite the fact that molecules in vibrationally excited states may have a larger eective radius than ground state molecules (see, for instance, Ref. [19]). The validity of this assumption is discussed in Ref. [14]. It is shown that taking into account the dependence of elastic cross-sections on the vibrational quantum number provides only a very small correction to the transport coecients. Applying these assumptions one can simplify signi®cantly the procedure of transport coecients calculation. First, assumptions (2)±(4) permit to express all the bracket integrals in terms of the vibrational level populations, atomic number densities and reduced elastic collision integrals
l;r Xcd (see Refs. [20±23] for de®nition and Ref. [24] for the most reliable data on these integrals). The ®nal expressions for the bracket integrals are obtained in Ref. [10] and are given in Appendix A.2 in the simpli®ed form ((A.2)±(A.12)). The next result concerns the simpli®cation of systems (18) and (20)±(23). Let us consider ®rst the most simple system (23) for the coecients bci;r . Due to assumption (4) the bracket integrals Hrrcidk 0 depend on the vibrational level i only through the vibrational level populations nci (see Appendix A.2). Then, after some algebra, from system (23) it follows that coecients bci;r do not depend on the vibrational level: 8i 0; . . . ; Lc bci;r bc;r . Keeping only the ®rst non-vanishing terms of expansion (13) one can reduce the calculation of the shear viscosity coecient to the simple formula: l

26
As it is seen, system (26) contains only L equations instead of Ntot in system (23). This solution coincides formally with the one obtained in the quasi-stationary local thermal equilibrium onetemperature approach described in Refs. [16,23], cd the bracket integrals H00 for the one-temperature solution are given in many classical works on the
l;r transport theory in terms of standard Xcd integrals and ®ctitious viscosity and heat conductivity coecients [21±23]. However, the principal dierence exists: as the transport coecients are determined by the cross-sections of rapid processes, the
l;r Xcd integrals in the state-to-state model depend on the cross-sections of elastic collisions and TR exchanges; in the one-temperature approach they depend also on the cross-sections of vibrational energy exchanges. Finally one can conclude that shear viscosity does not depend on the vibrational distributions. It is reasonable because this coecient describes the transfer of momentum which depends signi®cantly on the velocities but not on the internal state of particles. The bulk viscosity coecient as well as relaxation pressure are determined by the integrals depending on Decidk rot and, consequently, cannot be calculated using assumption (3) proposed above. In some cases these coecients can be expressed in terms of the rotational relaxation times. For a pure diatomic gas bulk viscosity in the state-to-state approach is obtained in Ref. [25]. Now, let us consider the coecients making part of the diusion velocities and total energy ¯ux. Proceeding in a similar way and invoking also assumption (1), the expression for the thermal conductivity coecient has been simpli®ed: k0

System (28) must be solved together with the constraint obtained from Eq. (20) after summation over i: Xq c ac;00 0:
29 q c Again, compared to systems (18) and (20) the number of equations is signi®cantly reduced: there are only 3Lmol 2Lat equations instead of 3Nv 2Lat . This result is also close to the one given by the one-temperature model [16,23] except two points: the ®rst one, concerning the inelastic cross-sections is discussed above, and the second point is that in the state-to-state approach only rotational degrees of freedom make contribution to the internal thermal conductivity whereas in the one-temperature approach both rotational and vibrational energy contribute to this coecient. Therefore in the latter case the internal speci®c heat cint;c appears in Eqs. (27) and (28) instead of rotational speci®c heat crot;c . The reason for this is that thermal conductivity as well as viscosity are determined by the rapid processes. Finally in the state-to-state approach the thermal conductivity coecient does not depend on the vibrational distribution. The transport of vibrational energy is described by introducing diusion coecients for every vibrational state. Due to the fact that aci;00 ac;00 , 8i, the thermal diusion coecients are also independent from the vibrational state

Actually, system (21) cannot be simpli®ed in the same way as the previous ones because of the structure of its right-hand sides. However, it is easy to show that the main part of

System (30)±(33) contains only L 1 equations instead of Ntot in the case of systems (21) and (22). Finally the system of diusion coecients is reduced to the following: there are Nv coecients Dcici which are dierent for any vibrational level i of species c, Lmol coecients Dcc Dcick , 8 i, 8 k 6 i, and L2 coecients Dcd Dcidk , 8d 6 c, 8 i, k. The total number of independent diusion coecients is Nv Lmol L
L 1=2. Coming back to the
N2 =N mixture mentioned at the beginning of this section, after simpli®ca-
183
tions proposed above, one obtains only 49 independent diusion coecients, each of them is found from the system of three equations. For the computation of thermal conductivity and shear viscosity coecients the systems of ®ve and two equations are to be solved respectively. Finally, computation of the transport coecients is reduced to the solution of linear algebraic systems (26), (28), (29) and (30)±(33). Coecients of these systems represent the partial bracket integrals determined by the cross-sections of elastic collisions and translation±rotation energy exchange. The expressions for the bracket integrals cd cd , Kcd H00 rr0 pp0 , c00 are summarized in Appendix A.3 ((A.13)±(A.22)). These formulas are close to the classical ones [21±23]. Nevertheless, one should keep in mind that in the state-to-state approach
l;r Xcd integrals as well as the bracket integrals depend on the cross-sections of elastic and TR collisions (while in the well known one-temperature case they depend also on the cross-sections of vibrational energy transitions). However, for the
l;r practical calculations of Xcd integrals, the inelastic cross-sections are usually substituted by the elastic ones. The in¯uence of the inelastic crosssections on these integrals occurs to be weak (see, for instance, Ref. [26]). Various methods of solution of transport linear systems have been elaborated since the work of Chapman and Cowling [20]. The most evident way is the direct solution of algebraic systems by the Cramer's rule which allows one to express the transport coecients explicitly as ratios of determinants [20±22,27]. Nevertheless, solving the linear systems by this method is extremely computationally expensive. Another direct method using the Gaussian elimination is considered, for instance, in Ref. [28]. This method is noticeably less time consumable but still not satisfactory as a majority of direct methods. Recently the mathematical properties of transport linear systems have been studied comprehensively in Ref. [23] and new ecient iterative algorithms have been proposed. This technique provides very fast and accurate evaluation of transport properties. It should be emphasized that the resemblance of systems (26), (28) and (29) to the classical onetemperature ones remains only formal, it is seen
184
E.V. Kustova / Chemical Physics 270 (2001) 177±195
from the de®nition of partial bracket integrals (see Appendix A.1) and from the fact that vibrational degrees of freedom do not contribute to the transport coecients. Strictly speaking, the independence of some transport coecients of the vibrational distributions is not an evident fact, and application of the state-to-state transport theory must in essence be based on the complete systems (18) and (20)±(23). Thus, the analysis of transport properties performed in Refs. [11±14] is carried out in this way, and it was a rather lengthy procedure, even using an approximate method mentioned in Section 1. A possibility of getting simpli®ed transport linear systems in the state-to-state approach is discussed in Ref. [10], but their validity has never been proved before. The derivation of transport linear systems (26), (28)±(33) is the ®rst step to the implementation of state-to-state transport theory to the computational ¯uid dynamics.
4. Diusion coecients In this section the diusion coecients are considered in some more details. The diusion coecients for each vibrational state have been introduced recently in Ref. [10], they are required for the estimation of vibrational energy transport in the absence of quasi-stationary vibrational distributions. For a mixture of diatomic gas A2 and atoms A the analytical expressions for the diusion coecients can be derived from Eqs. (30)±(33). Finally all diusion coecients are expressed in terms of mass fractions of species cd qd =q and binary and self-diusion coecients: 1=2

mcd is the reduced mass, rcd is the collision diameter. Thus for the (N2 =N) mixture the diusion coecients are given by:

One can notice that expressions for DNN2 and DNN are similar to the well-known formulas given by Ferziger and Kaper [22] for a binary mixture (again, the dierence is in the cross-sections de
1;1 termining the Xcd integrals). The state speci®c diusion coecients DN2 iN2 i depend on the mass fractions of chemical species and population of the corresponding level. Due to assumption (4) of the previous section, these coecients are the only ones determined by the non-equilibrium stateto-state distributions. In the limit of a pure diatomic gas
cN 0 coecients DN2 iN2 i and DN2 N2 take the form obtained in Ref. [25]: 1 DN2 iN2 i DN2 1 ; DN2 N2 DN2 : c N2 i The state-to-state vibrational distributions as well as transport coecients and heat ¯ux have been investigated in the previous papers [11±13] for three dierent ¯ows of a
N2 ; N mixture: (1) ¯ow behind a strong shock wave (initial conditions are: M0 15, T0 293 K, p0 100 Pa), (2) ¯ow in a hypersonic boundary layer (temperature and pressure at the edge of the boundary layer are Te 5000 K, pe 1000 Pa, the wall temperature is Tw 300 K), and (3) expanding ¯ow in the F4
E.V. Kustova / Chemical Physics 270 (2001) 177±195
nozzle used in ONERA (reservoir conditions are: T0 6000 K, p0 105 Pa). The analysis carried out in these papers is based on a simpli®ed scheme: ®rst, the vibrational distributions, species concentrations, temperature, pressure, velocity are computed either in the Euler approach of non-viscous and non-conductive gas ¯ow [11,13] or on the basis of very simple models for transport coecients [12]. The numerical methods are described in details in Refs. [6±9,11]. Then the calculated macroscopic parameters are used as input for the transport coecients and heat transfer evaluation. This approach permits to estimate qualitatively the in¯uence of state-to-state vibrational kinetics on the transport properties. Certainly, in order to understand the mutual eect of non-equilibrium kinetics and state dependent transport properties, it is necessary to use the equations of viscous and heat conductive gas ¯ow and compute the state-to-state coecients at the each time and space cell. Up to now, the computational cost of such a scheme was extremely high, and the practical incorporation of the state-tostate linear transport systems to the numerical codes has not been accomplished. The implementation of simpli®ed systems proposed in the present paper makes this goal attainable. A simple illustration: in the present study the transport coecients and heat ¯uxes in
N2 ; N mixture ¯ows are calculated using the same macroscopic parameters as in Refs. [11±13] but applying reduced systems (26), (28)±(33) in contrast to the previous papers where complete systems (18) and (20)±(23) have been solved. The computational time for each step is now 100±150 times less, the accuracy of calculations remains the same. The gain of time is expected to be much higher for multi-component mixtures. This can encourage one to consider simultaneously the state-to-state kinetics and transport theory and by this means get more comprehensive results. The following discussion serves as a warning against an over-simpli®cation of the diusion coecients. The main factor which aects the state speci®c diusion coecients Dcici is the non-equilibrium vibrational kinetics, Dcici appear to be approximately inverse proportional to nci (see Refs. [11±13]). The similar dependence of usual self-
185
diusion coecients on the concentration of corresponding chemical species has been predicted by Ferziger and Kaper [22]. It is known that vibrational level populations can vary within several orders of magnitude, therefore, the inverse proportional dependence leads to very strong variations of diusion coecients as far as one computes them as functions of i. For the practical calculations sometimes it is more convenient to deal with slowly varying coecients. Consequently, it is useful to introduce the coecients e cici in the following way: D e cici nci Dcici ; D n
38
e cici to the macroscopic equations inand insert D stead of Dcici . Various de®nitions of diusion velocity are discussed in Ref. [22], and it is shown that de®nitions like (7) are more self-consistent. e cici vary much slower with However, coecients D the vibrational quantum number compared to Dcici , this makes easier to use them for rapid estie cici allows mations. Moreover, weak variation of D one to suppose that these coecients do not depend on the vibrational state and can be replaced e which, for a mixture by a unique coecient D,

39
Such an assumption is often used in the stateto-state calculations in order to incorporate the vibrational energy transport by diusion to the master equations and to treat it in the most simple way [8,9,29,30]. By this means the constant Lewis and Schmidt numbers can be introduced, it facilitates signi®cantly the numerical algorithms [8,9]. However, assumption (39) requires further veri®cation. The limits of its validity as well as the impact of vibrational distributions on the diusion coecients are discussed hereafter. In Figs. 1±7 the vibrational distributions and state speci®c diusion coecients (38) are given for dierent conditions. For a comparison the e (39) independent on the values of coecient D vibrational state are also plotted.

do not exist. Approaching to the thermal equilibrium state this discrepancy decreases noticeably. Concerning the high levels, the dierence between e N2 iN2 i and D e does not exceed 10% even in the D range of strong vibrational non-equilibrium. It can be connected with the fact that the shape of distributions remains close to the Boltzmann one and, therefore, high states are not populated suf®ciently to give a noticeable contribution to the diusion coecients. Quite dierent behaviour of diusion coecients has been found in a boundary layer, where the vibrational distributions are essentially nonBoltzmann. The mechanism of formation of these distributions is the following: dissociation in the gas ¯ow near the high-temperature edge of the boundary layer produces nitrogen atoms which diuse towards the cool surface. Recombination near the surface pumps the populations of the high vibrational states. As the result of this process and VV and VT exchange the strong non-equilibrium distribution with a plateau part at the intermediate and upper levels appears just near the wall (see Fig. 3). This eect has been studied in Refs. [8,9,29] and the role of recombination and VV
exchange is found to be particularly important in this ¯ow. The non-Boltzmann character of vibrational distributions in¯uences dramatically the diusion coecients: close to the surface, at i > 5 e N iN i = D e reaches several thousands (Fig. the ratio D 2 2 4). The over-population of high states leads to very large values of corresponding diusion coecients. Again, coming to equilibrium at the external edge of boundary layer, this ratio decreases, and e N iN i and D e for ®nally the discrepancy between D 2 2 high levels tends to 5±10% (Fig. 5). Another example of non-equilibrium ¯ow is a nozzle expansion. Characteristic vibrational distributions and diusion coecients in the F4 nozzle [7,13] are shown in Figs. 6 and 7. In the initial part of the nozzle the distributions are close to the Boltzmann ones and then a plateau develops at the intermediate and upper levels as a result of VT deactivation, VV exchange and recombination. The region of major change of the level populations is in the beginning of the expanding part just after the throat
x < 0:6 m. Then the populations (except very high levels) change weakly and approach the constant frozen values. This character of the distributions has been found in Ref. [7], in

this paper a comparison of the calculated distributions with the experimental ones [31] is given and a qualitative agreement is observed. In the vicinity of the throat, where the distributions have an approximately Boltzmann shape, the state dee pendent diusion coecients are not far from D. The dierence increases with x from 5% at x 0:5 m up to 50% at x 2 m. It should be noted that for the calculation of diusion coecients only the lowest 20 levels have been retained. At higher levels the distributions in this kind of nozzle take more complicated form [7,13], it can change also the diusion coecients. The general tendency can be formulated in the e overestimates following way: average coecient D state-to-state diusion coecients at low vibrational levels, and underestimates them for the high states. The discrepancy between these coecients decreases signi®cantly approaching to the thermal equilibrium conditions. Let us consider now a qualitative behaviour of the total heat ¯ux calculated for the ¯ows discussed above using the state dependent and con-
e N2 iN2 i and D. e Figs. 8± stant diusion coecients D 10 present respectively the heat ¯uxes behind a shock wave, in a boundary layer, and in a nozzle. Curves denoted as ``1'' in these ®gures correspond e N iN i , to the results obtained with coecients D 2 2 ``2'' are calculated with the state independent coe ecient D. The role of diusion in a shock heated gas ¯ow is found to be very important [11], even the qualitative behaviour of the total energy ¯ux and Fourier ¯ux caused by heat conductivity

Under these conditions the employment of averaged coee gives only a very rough approximation for cients D the heat ¯ux. Such a discrepancy can be explained in the following way. The only positive diusion velocity in this case is that of the ground vibrational state V0 (the population of the ground state is the only one which decreases during the relaxation process, remaining, however, much higher than the populations of other levels). Consequently, noticeable overestimation of the diusion

e N 0N 0 (see Fig. 2) leads to overesticoecient D 2 2 mation of the V0 contribution to the heat ¯ux. In the case of state dependent diusion coecients, the contribution of dierent levels to diusion of vibrational energy is of the same order of magnitude, and negative diusion velocities decrease
signi®cantly the total energy ¯ux compared to the previous case. Looking at Figs. 4 and 5 one can expect a strong disagreement between the heat ¯uxes calculated in a boundary layer using two models for diusion coecients. Nevertheless, the dierence
192
E.V. Kustova / Chemical Physics 270 (2001) 177±195
between two ¯uxes does not exceed 30% (see Fig. 9). The reason is that in the boundary layer with non-catalytic surface the contribution of the diffusion processes to the total energy ¯ux is much less than in the shock heated ¯ow, the heat transfer in this case is determined mainly by thermal conductivity. The heterogeneous reactions on the surface increase dramatically the role of diusion [32], and in the case of catalytic wall the eect of diusion coecients on the heat ¯ux should be greater. Fig. 9 plots the heat ¯uxes computed in a nozzle. It is not surprisingly that the in¯uence of state dependent diusion coecients on the heat ¯ux is weak (the discrepancy is within 15% in a very narrow interval just near the throat and does not exceed 5% in other regions). This is explained by the fact that in this ¯ow only the low vibrational levels contribute considerably to the heat transfer at x > 0:6 m (the highly located states are populated very poorly). For low levels the discrepancy e N iN i and D e is small, therefore, coebetween D 2 2 e cient D gives a satisfactory description of vibrational energy diusion in a nozzle. One should keep in mind that the present results can be treated only as the qualitative ones because of approximations adopted for the heat ¯ux calculation. A comparison with experimental data is necessary for the estimation of accuracy of the proposed method. Unfortunately, the lack of data on the heat transfer in the ¯ows discussed above makes this task unattainable. Nevertheless, it can be pointed out that only state-to-state description gives an adequate shape of vibrational distributions in strongly non-equilibrium conditions. For instance, in papers [30,33,34] the experimentally measured vibrational distributions in optically pumped CO and other diatomic gases are compared with the state-to-state and quasistationary distributions. An excellent correlation between the state-to-state and measured distributions is observed, whereas all quasi-stationary models give a very poor agreement. This fact is a good reason to believe that the results of state-tostate simulation of the heat transfer in extremely non-equilibrium conditions will be much more accurate compared to the results obtained by means of quasi-stationary one-temperature or multitemperature models.
5. Conclusions The transport kinetic theory in the state-to-state approach is considered. The simpli®ed algorithm for the viscosity, thermal conductivity and diusion coecients calculation is proposed. This algorithm reduces essentially the time of transport coecients computation and thus encourages one to insert the obtained linear transport systems to the numerical codes for the solution of master equations. The results concerning state speci®c diusion coecients which describe the transport of vibrational energy are presented, and the in¯uence of non-equilibrium vibrational distributions on these coecients is estimated. A comparison with the results obtained on the basis of the simple intuitive model is also given. This model gives a satisfactory agreement with the state-to-state approach only for weak deviations of vibrational distributions from the Boltzmann ones. Under strongly nonequilibrium conditions, state-to-state diusion coecients dier signi®cantly from the average values. Using the constant diusion coecients instead of the state dependent ones may lead to an essential error in the values of diusion velocities and total energy ¯ux.
