Abstract

Abstract Several years ago a summary article was written (1) about the theoretical calculation of the viscosity and several other properties of gases and gas mixtures. Since that time further calculations of the equation of state and transport coefficients of dense gases and liquids have been made. Although the statistical mechanical theory is an involved and highly mathematical topic, and although some of the numerical computations are quite complex, the final results, nevertheless, may be presented in terms of tabulated functions, which are easy to use in practical calculations. The formulas and tables given in this paper should prove useful in engineering-design calculations and in chemical-process studies. Furthermore, the underlying statistical mechanical theory whenever possible should be used to give intelligent interpretation to the analysis and correlation of chemical and engineering data on the properties of matter.
