Abstract

Based on Enskog’s dense gas theory and on Grad’s method of moments, the 13-field and the five-field theories are developed for monatomic dense gases of hard spherical particles. The transport coefficients for the five-field theory are obtained from an iteration method akin to the Maxwellian procedure. The problem concerning the propagation of plane harmonic waves of small amplitude is analyzed for both theories.
