In this paper, using the theoretical and numerical investigation of molecular motion, we study heat transfer processes in the gas placed in a Newtonian gravitational field. The influence of gravity on the heat conductivity of the gas is analyzed. The gravity considered is more than 100 000 times higher than that of the Earth. The main differences of the gas heat conductivity under such high gravity from the one detected under normal gravity are demonstrated and explained. It is shown how the thermal equilibrium for the heat conductivity of the gas depends on gravity and the type of gas. The difference between natural gravity and the centrifugal force is discussed. It is shown how the gas density influences the thermal equilibrium for the heat conductivity under a strong centrifugal force. The convective heat transfer in the gas placed into a gravitational or centrifugal field is analyzed. It is shown that the thermal equilibrium of the convective heat transfer under intensive gravity is not the same as under normal gravity. The horizontal convection mechanism is discussed. A technical way of the realization of gravity thermal effects in the gas is represented. All necessary parameters of the experimental setup are given.
