Abstract

The propagation of the weak discontinuities in binary non-reacting mixtures of classical ideal monoatomic gases is analyzed. The normal speeds of propagation are determined and compared with those of a single fluid. The differential equation governing the growth and the decay of the acceleration waves is obtained and the solutions for plane, cylindrical and spherical waves are shown. The influence of the different atomic masses of the constituents is also investigated.
