A quasi-universal scaling law for atomic transport in simple fluids

Open access
Rosenfeld, Yaakov·1999·Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter

Abstract

A semi-empirical `universal' corresponding-states relationship, for the dimensionless transport coefficients of dense fluids as functions of the reduced configurational entropy, was proposed more than twenty years ago and established by many simulations. Here it is shown analytically , by appealing to Enskog's original results for the inverse-power potentials, that the quasi-universal entropy scaling can be extended also to dilute gases . The analytic form and the possible origin for the entropy scaling for dense fluids are discussed in view of this unexpected result. On the basis of the entropy scaling we predict a minimum in the shear viscosity as a function of temperature for all soft inverse-power potentials, in quantitative agreement with the available simulations.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
