Abstract

In this paper the problem of kinetic coefficient calculations for a nonequilibrium mixture of chemically reacting ionized gases is investigated. The study is based on the generalized Chapman–Enskog method (GCEM) proposed by Alexeev [Theor. Exp. Chem. 5, 541 (1969)]. This work should be considered as a direct continuation of the paper [Phys. Rev. E 49, 2809 (1994)]. An effective method for the solution of the basic equation with non-self-adjoint operator (A equation) of the GCEM is developed for the case of reacting ionized gases and the calculation of the bracket expressions for elastic collisions of charged particles is given. Several concrete results of the kinetic coefficient calculations are discussed.
