The Chapman-Enskog method of solving the Boltzmann equation is presented in a simpler and more efficient form. For this purpose all the operations involving the usual polynomials are carried out in spherical polar coordinates, and the Racah-Wigner methods of dealing with irreducible tensors are used throughout. The expressions for the collision integral and the associated bracket expressions of kinetic theory are derived in terms of Talmi coefficients, which have been extensively studied in the harmonic oscillator shell model of nuclear physics.

A formula for the mobility of ions in a mixture of neutral gases is obtained as a generalization of an expression previously derived from the Boltzmann equation for ions in a pure gas (Kumar aitd Robson 1973). It is shown that Blanc's law holds only for very specialized situations. Using interaction potentials obtained in a previous work (Robson and Kumar 1973), the mobilities of K + ions in helium-neon mixtures have been calculated and the deviations from Blanc's law are discussed.

To describe technological systems using models of Markov chains and discrete models of the Boltzmann equation it is necessary to determine the probabilities of transition of a system from one state to another. An urgent topic of a scientific research is to improve the accuracy of solving the Boltzmann equation by making a reasonable choice of probabilities of transition and admissible areas of their application. The strategy to model and determine the probabilities of transitions is based on the finite volume method, the ratios of the theory of probability and the joint analysis of material and energy balances. Considering the ratios of the theory of probability, the authors have obtained the refined formula for the probabilities of transitions over the cells of the computational space of discrete models of the Boltzmann equations in case of the description of technological systems. Recommendations to choose the area of application of the model are presented. The computational analysis has showed a significant improvement of the quality of forecasting when we implement the proposed dependencies and recommendations. The relative error of calculating the energy of the system is reduced from 8,4 to 2,8 %. The presented calculated dependencies to determine the probabilities of transition and recommendations for their application can be used to simulate various technological processes and improve the quality of their description.
