Abstract
The viscosity and thermal conductivity coefficients of dense fluid argon have been calculated using the modified Enskog theory and the equilibrium statistical mechanical perturbation theory of Barker and Henderson. Agreement with experimental transport data is shown to be, in general, quite good. The results of these calculations are also compared to those obtained using the modified Enskog theory and an experimental equation of state. In this case, the results are seen to be excellent, which indicates that this approach provides us with a method of predicting transport properties of simple dense fluids from fundamental molecular theory.
