In this paper, calculated values of the viscosity and thermal conductivity of atomic nitrogen, taking into account three species (the ground and two excited states), are presented. The calculations, which assume that the temperature dependent probability of occupation of the states is given by the Boltzmann factor, are performed for atmospheric-pressure in the temperature range from 1,000 to 20,000 K. Six collision integrals are used in calculating the transport coefficients and we have introduced new averaged collision integrals where the weight associated at each interacting species pair is the probable collision frequency. The influence of the collision integral values and energy transfer between two different species is studied. These results are compared which those of published theoretical studies.
