Abstract
⺠A new derivation of the viscosity of a dilute gas is presented. ⺠The new derivation is carried out by using the steepest entropy ascent (SEA) principle in conjunction with the maximum entropy production (MEP) principle. ⺠The entropy of a dilute gas that carries a given velocity gradient is estimated.
