Abstract
A new expression for the thermal conductivity of anN-component polyatomic gas mixture in the dilute-gas limit has been derived, based on the Thijsse approximation. The results are presented in terms of experimentally accessible quantities to allow for easier calculation of the thermal conductivity and easier interpretation of the experimentally available data. The resulting expression are much simpler than other formulae hitherto available. An additional new expression for the thermal conductivity of anN-component polyatomic gas mixture has been derived by replacing the effective cross-section by their spherical limits. These results are cast in a form which is analogous with, and no more complicated than, the corresponding expressions for purely monatomic mixtures.
