Abstract
The Chapman-Enskog second approximation to Boltzmann's equation for a dilute simple gas is obtained for several different potential models using an iterative procedure. The perturbation functions to the local Maxwellian distribution, and various transport coefficients, are found as approximate sums of infinite series. Transport coefficients are calculated for Maxwellian, pseudo-Maxwellian, and rigid-sphere potential models and are compared with those obtained by the standard Chapman-Cowling method.
