Solutions of the type of traveling waves defining heat 
transfer and gas motion with account for the relaxation of the heat 
flow have been obtained and investigated. A comparative analysis of 
solutions of both types has been carried out. It is shown that, in 
the case where the relaxation of the heat flow is taken into account, 
solutions of the type of traveling waves can exist for any relation 
between the velocity of the traveling wave and the velocity of sound.
