EQUATION OF STATE AND EQUATIONS FOR VISCOSITY AND THERMAL-CONDUCTIVITY OF NONPOLAR AND POLAR PURE FLUIDS BASED ON THE SIGNIFICANT-LIQUID-STRUCTURE THEORY

It is shown that the significant-liquid-structure theory is an effective tool to develop equations of state and equations for the viscosity and the thermal conductivity of non-polar and polar pure fluids. Parameters for 18 non-polar and four polar fluids are reported. For these substances, the calculated values for vapour pressure, molar volume, viscosity and thermal conductivity are compared with the recommended values. The equations turn out to be valid in wide ranges of temperatures and pressures above the normal boiling point.
