He became lecturer in physics at the University in 1901 and professor in 1912, when C. Christiansen (1843–1917) retired. He held this post until his own retirement in 1941.Knudsen was renowned for his work on kinetic-molecular theory and low-pressure phenomena in gases. His name is associated with the Knudsen flow, Knudsen number, Knudsen layer and Knudsen gases. Also there is the Knudsen equation; two instruments, the Knudsen absolute manometer and Knudsen gauge; and one gas pump that operates without moving parts, the Knudsen pump. His book, The Kinetic Theory of Gases (London, 1934), contains the main results of his research.Knudsen was also very active in physical oceanography, developing methods of defining properties of seawater. He was editor of Hydrological Tables (Copenhagen–London, 1901).He was awarded the Alexander Agassiz Medal of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences in 1935."@en }
