Abstract

The most important transport properties of argon have been calculated using classical kinetic theory expressions in conjunction with high-quality ab initio potential energy values computed by Patkowski and Szalewicz. Dilute gas transport properties have been calculated for the viscosity, thermal conductivity, self-diffusion coefficient and thermal diffusion factor from 83 to 10,000 K. Comparisons between experimental transport property data and values presently calculated indicate that the present theoretical predictions may be employed as recommended values for this set of transport properties over a wide temperature range.
