Scientific paper

In this paper we have derived a set of transport equations for thermal electron component of the ionospheric plasma in the presence of an anisotropy of the electron energy distribution. Expressions are calculated in a 16-moment approximation for the moments of integrals of elastic and inelastic collisions of thermal electrons with basic neutral ionospheric components. The obtained moments determine variations of the hydrodynamical parameters, such as macroscopic velocity, pressure tensor, viscosity tensor, heat fluxes in respective equations due to collisions. The results have been obtained for an arbitrary degree of electron temperature anisotropy.
