RT Journal Article ID 4ffb68b63020d5ec A1 Yerofeyev, A. I. T1 Computing Rotational Relaxation on the Basis of Three-Dimensional Equations of Molecule Motion JF International Journal of Fluid Mechanics Research JO FMR YR 2000 FD 2000-09-01 VO 27 IS 2-4 SP 320 OP 330 AB Three-dimensional molecule motion equations of classical mechanics are solved to study rotational relaxation of nitrogen. The problem of relaxation is treated by the Monte Carlo method. The investigation is concerned with dependence of the process on interaction-potential parameters and initial conditions: (1) a type of a rotational energy distribution function and (2) rotational and translational temperatures.
