By the computer simulations we have studied a behaviour of the virial coefficient k(t) for the triples and quintets of galaxies as a function of time. In a number of cases some quasiperiodical oscillations k(t) have been observed; these variations are resulted from an existence of the temporary binary subsystems. Strong negative correlation between k and rmin (rmin is a minimum separation between the bodies) is observed. A presence of a large hidden mass Mn distributed around a triple increases the degree of stochasticity of the process k(t) and decreases the correlation between k and rmin. The process k(t) must not been considered as a random one, as the autocorrelation function does not show any decreasing of the oscillation amplitude with a grow of time.
