| Summary: | This comprehensive book describes the most soundly based methods currently available for evaluating the transport properties, particularly viscosity and thermal conductivity, of pure fluids and fluid mixtures. Particular emphasis is placed on recent theoretical advances in our understanding of fluid transport properties in all the different regions of thermodynamic states. Following a general introductory section, the important theoretical tools for describing complete transport property surfaces of fluids are prsented. Different methods of data representation are then covered, followed by a section which demonstrates the application of selected methods under various specific conditions. Case studies of transport property analysis for real fluids are then given for system with increasing complexity, and the book concludes with a discussion of various international data banks and prediction packages. |
