Abstract
This paper presents a method for the approximate calculation of the ideal specific heats of polyatomic molecules occurring in rocket combustion processes. The method is based on the assignment of characteristic frequencies to individual interatomic bonds, the simplification consisting in the use of the same characteristic frequency for a particular bond irrespective of the over-all structure of the molecule in which it occurs. The method can be applied to molecules for which precise spectroscopic data are not available.
