Abstract

Transport coefficients are derived for a dense fluid of square-well, rough spheres. This molecular model may be described as a rough spherical core surrounded by a square-well potential. The Chapman–Enskog approach is used to obtain the transport coefficients. The expressions include the ’’first’’ order contributions arising from the deviation of the singlet distribution function from local equilibrium in addition to the ’’zeroth’’ order terms involving the local equilibrium function. The kinetic equation is also derived.
