## Figures

FIG. 1.

The normalized mean free path , viscosity , and thermal conductivity of the air-helium gas mixture as functions of , where and represent , , and . This normalization ensures that when and when , so that the rates of change for each quantity can also be compared.

FIG. 2.

The transducer’s FH as a function of when the heating element is turned off.

FIG. 3.

Transducer’s FH and corresponding FH loss at different .

## Tables

Table I.

Physical properties of air and helium. All the values, except the critical temperature and critical pressure, are for the temperature 300 K. Note that and .
