Synopsis

This book provides a theoretical and practical framework for the application of the m-6-8 potential function to the study of transport and equilibrium properties of simple gases. The m-6-8 potential is a four-parameter function that has been shown to be successful in correlating experimental data for a variety of properties, including viscosity, second virial coefficient, thermal conductivity, and self-diffusion coefficient. The author begins by reviewing the basic concepts of statistical mechanics and then discusses the m-6-8 potential in detail. The author then shows how to use the m-6-8 potential to calculate transport and equilibrium properties of simple gases. The book concludes with a discussion of the significance of the m-6-8 potential for understanding the behavior of simple gases.
