✦ Synopsis

A survey is presented o] the available experimental and theoretical information on molecular diffusion and thermal conductivity coe.~qcients likely to be o[ interest in low speed combustion studies. Emphasis is placed on high temperature data and practical methods of calculation. Reliability of present in[ormation is discussed, and the great lack o[ experimental data is pointed out. No pretence o] a complete summary is made, but most o[ the best existing sources are indicated, Consideration o[ viscosity or dense gas effects is specifically excluded.

*An exception to this statement is mentioned in a footnote of reference l 1.
