The thermal conductivity of a system consisting of square-well particles has been determined by the extension of the Enskog formula of the hard-sphere model to square-well fluid. The approach is the same as applied for the diffusion coefficients and shear viscosity of square-well fluid. The addition of an attractive part in the hard-sphere potential such as square-well potential remains insensitive to influence the thermal conductivity. The results obtained are in a good agreement with the molecular dynamics results.

Abstract
The thermal conductivity of a system consisting of square-well particles has been determined by the extension of the Enskog formula of the hard-sphere model to square-well fluid. The approach is the same as applied for the diffusion coefficients and shear viscosity of square-well fluid. The addition of an attractive part in the hard-sphere potential such as square-well potential remains insensitive to influence the thermal conductivity. The results obtained are in a good agreement with the molecular dynamics results.File in questo prodotto:
