Description
Summary:The method for evaluation of the dense fluid viscosity and thermal conductivity (translational part) from intermolecular interaction information is derived on the basis of the local similarity principle. The non-equilibrium criteria of mapping a real-system interaction function U r( R) to the reference Van der Waals potential U b( R, A) are formulated first. Then the density dependence for the kinetic effective hard-sphere diameter is studied. The test of the proposed approach has been carried out for a number of spherical potential models (Ne-Ne, Ar-Ar, Kr-Kr, Xe-Xe, CO 2-CO 2, N 2-N 2, O 2-O 2) in the range of the reduced densities 0.4< nΣ 3
